I have been working as a primary teacher for over ten years, having qualified through the postgraduate route. I have no spouse and no children and this situation is not going to change. Why am I obliged to contribute 1.5% of my salary to the Spouse's and Children's Pension as I will never benefit from it and do not wish to contribute to it? I presume there is no way that I can get out of it or be refunded for contributions made already?
