One of the benefits of your teacher’s pension is that death benefits are payable to your loved ones if something should happen to you. A death grant (a one off payment) will be paid out to the person(s) you choose to nominate. It’s important to note that a long term pension will only be paid to a qualifying partner or spouse (and children/dependant family member in certain circumstances).
