Do I need insurance?

All pupils are automatically included in the school’s Personal Accident Scheme. There is no extra charge for this cover.

The school’s insurance for personal effects is limited to fire and theft, but not loss. Items that are suspected stolen have to be reported to the police to enable you to make a claim. Parents are strongly advised to take out their own insurance cover for personal effects. Sums of money are not covered by the school’s insurance policy and it is essential that any money is handed in for safe keeping. We advise items of value are not brought to school, and that all personal possessions are marked clearly.

An Optional Personal Effects Scheme is available along with Accident Insurance and AXA Healthcare through the School. Contact the Bursary for more information.

Medical Insurance: International Students staying for less than 6 months are covered by NHS ‘emergency treatments’ only.  Personal health insurance is recommended.
