Available levels of indemnity
We believe that teachers and students alike should be adequately protected so we provide all of our policy holders with an indemnity of €5,000,000 which is the amount required by most Councils, the NHS and other similar authorities and institutions. A higher limit of €10,000,000 is available at an additional cost upon request.
