Teacher Sickness Insurance


Insurance to protect a school’s budget against the cost of staff sickness can often be referred to as Teacher Sickness Insurance, Supply Teacher Insurance, School Accident & Illness Insurance or similar. Whatever you prefer to call this valuable form of protection, you can rest assured that we are leading experts. In fact, we are the longest-standing provider.

The concept was introduced in 1991 when Local Management of Schools (LMS) was introduced by the government of the time. We were then known as “SMg” and have since expanded to become part of the renowned Towergate group of insurance specialists, servicing schools of all types and sizes around the country.
 
We offer two flexible sickness insurance packages:
 
  • EduCover – primary schools will probably favour this approach.
  • StopLoss – secondary schools will probably favour this approach.


Each can be tailored to suit your school’s individual requirements. You can choose to deal with us by phone, fax or email. We’ll even visit you if you’d like to meet us face-to-face. We will guide you through your options and provide appropriate advice.
