24-hour assistance services
Planning a school trip can be very stressful which is why our policy includes travel and medical assistance, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Pre-travel assistance can help you with anything you may need to know before you go, such as health precautions, entry permit requirements, climate and medical facilities. Travel assistance is there for when you need medical help; advice, referral or treatment, air ambulances and local payment of hospital bills.
Personal accident cover for school trips
In the event of a member of your group having an accident whilst on an outing, you will be covered for medical expenses up to £25,000 for each insured person. In case of any accidents leading to hospitalisation, the policy includes up to £50 per day for up to 104 weeks as well as cover for expenses incurred from travel and accommodation in visiting an injured person. The school trips and travel insurance also includes cover for counselling required as a result of an accident on a trip for up to £250 per week.
Cancellation, curtailment, replacement and rearrangement cover
When something unexpected happens and disrupts plans, our school trips and travel insurance will cover up to £5,000 for any journey which you are forced to cancel, curtail, replace a staff member or change itinerary. Travel delay insurance will ensure compensation if your departure is inconveniently delayed as a direct result of a matter which is out of your control.
School trip and travel baggage insurance
Our policy provides peace of mind in the event of baggage or equipment being lost, damaged, stolen or destroyed. Sometimes delays cannot be avoided so if any baggage is lost for more than 4 hours you will be reimbursed towards the cost of emergency replacement clothing, toiletries and similar items. If any business equipment is lost or damaged we will automatically reinstate your sum insured after a loss at no extra cost.
