Now as to how many areas provide this service in schools I have no idea. But I can't see it being a one off.
He is happy as Larry now with his pension..and a new job.
His only whinge is he has to pay tax on his full new wage

There aren't enough fire prevention jobs for every firefighter over 55 is my guess, the are able to still 'retire' from service but the pension will not be payable till they reach 60.
