Personal Accident Insurance
This Section indemnifies the Insured against accidental bodily injury whist:
1) Participating in activities as arranged by the school only
2) Representing the province or the country in a recognized event, provided the insured person is not gaining financially as a result of their participation in such event.
- This policy is not a medical aid and should not be taken as a substitute for medical aid cover All in-hospital costs are to first be claimed from a Medical Aid and Gap Cover to preserve the annual limit of medical expenses.
- As a reimbursement policy, costs falling under this policy will be reimbursed on receipt of invoices and proof of payment
- Medical Expenses are limited to those incurred and medically necessary within 24 months of the injury
- Whilst undergoing treatment for any injury, no second injury will be accepted unless the treatment for the first claim was finalised and the insured person cleared by a medical practitioner to return to sport and other activities.
School Fee Remission
This Section indemnifies the Policyholder for the loss incurred as result of the Policyholder refunding the school fees to the Parent or Guardian of the Insured Person, where the Insured Person has been absent from school lessons for a continuous period during the school term as a result of:
- Accident and Illness (which triggers because of an Accident, a Serious Illness or contact with a non-communicable disease)
- School closure benefit which triggers because of a Localised Outbreak at the Policyholder which renders the continuance of schoolwork impossible (after reasonable attempts to access tuition).
Professional Indemnity

Public Liability
This Section indemnifies the Insured for Damages which the Insured shall become legally liable to pay consequent upon Injury or Damage which occurred in the course of or in connection with the business.
