Teaching and support staff absences can cause financial concerns and put pressure of other members of staff. The security and peace of mind of staff absence insurance can help ease this worry by providing a financial benefit to allow you to hire a temporary replacement.

 

We recognise that different types and sizes of schools have different requirements so our policy can be tailored to meet your needs - you choose:

  • categories of staff to cover
  • daily benefit
  • excess period of each category
