Case Studies


Teacher sickness insurance

 

Plymouth school looking for a quote

Issue: In readiness for April, a Plymouth school called us in February for a Supply Teacher Insurance quotation and told us they had a teacher who had been off for two months (in December and January) with a chronic illness.

 

Result: Towergate Risk Solutions did not apply any exclusion to that person and the school accepted cover with us.

 

Wirral school at renewal time

Issue: This school had a diabetic teacher who had unfortunately been ill for a period within the past year. A Supply Teacher Insurance competitor offered the school a premium £2,000 less than ours.

 

Result: Upon further inspection of the policy wording, it was discovered that the competitor would have excluded this condition. The school renewed with us.

 

Bradford school looking for a quote

Issue: We received a call from a school which was using an alternative Supply Teacher Insurance provider. They were aggrieved because that provider had refused to pay for a period of absence necessary for a teacher’s mastectomy operation. Their insurers had stated it was not covered because they considered it to be a pre-existing illness, even though the breast cancer was first diagnosed after the school had begun cover.

 

Result: Had the school been with Towergate Risk Solutions, the claim would have been paid in full, as we do not exclude pre-existing illnesses nor chronic illnesses. The school joined us when their renewal came round.
