Protecting Educational Institutions: Specialized Insurance Coverage

Protecting Educational Institutions: Specialized Insurance Coverage

January 2024

Navigating the insurance needs of educational institutions like daycares, private schools, and career colleges requires specialized coverage tailored to their unique risks. We recognize these challenges and have developed targeted Primary Liability (CGL) and Errors & Omissions (E&O) insurance solutions to address them effectively.

Why Specialty Coverage Matters
As you know, educational institutions face a distinct set of risks due to the nature of their operations and interactions with students, parents, and staff. Here’s why specialized insurance coverage is crucial:

Student Safety
The safety and well-being of students and staff are paramount concerns for educational settings, where accidents can lead to liability claims. For instance, imagine a scenario where a student fractures an arm while playing at recess, resulting in a lawsuit alleging negligence on the school’s part. This is precisely why comprehensive CGL coverage is essential—it protects against bodily injury claims arising from such incidents.

Professional Liability
Educators and administrators may face claims of professional negligence or errors in delivering educational services. Consider a private college being sued for failing to fulfill promised job placement outcomes to graduates of a specific program. Our E&O insurance provides crucial protection in such scenarios, covering legal costs and damages associated with alleged professional mistakes.

Property Damage
Schools and daycares have valuable assets that need protection. In the event of a fire damaging classrooms and equipment, comprehensive property damage coverage ensures they can recover swiftly without undue financial strain.
