Teacher Pension Question ...

In that case it seems fair in that both her and a full-time teacher who worked 16 years would each get 24% of their highest 3 consecutive years of earnings as their pension, so she would be getting half of what a full-time teacher gets (all else being equal and assuming she works 1/2 time, which appears to be the case).

The person who works slightly less than half-time gets a bad deal by comparison.

If she goes full-time for 3 consecutive years then the OP's wife gets a great deal (in effect a form of pension spiking).

Make sense?
