It’s critical to keep your students, faculty, school facility, and materials safe. Some may question the need for insurance policies specifically geared toward private schools. However, the benefits of these coverage plans are invaluable. Unfortunately, unforeseen risks are a part of running educational institutions. Therefore, planning ahead to cover those liabilities is essential. We help ensure that your school is able to protect your assets and have the finances to provide defense in the event of a claim.
A comprehensive private school insurance policy begins with General Liability and Property coverages and builds from there to cover your most important assets. Beacon’s package policies provide the flexibility of customizing insurance programs specific to your school and its unique needs. Options can include property, general liability, crime, sexual misconduct, directors & officers’ liability, automobile, worker’s comp and more. Beacon’s expertise and relationships with national brokers specificly for school insurance will find the coverage you need.

FAQs on Private School Insurance

What type of insurance does a private school need?

Every school is unique, and every state has different coverage requirements. A private school in Idaho would not need hurricane coverage. Yet, they would have an interest in coverage to repair their boiler in the face of a blizzard. Each school needs to have custom insurance coverage based on what they do and how they do it.

How often should a private school review their insurance policy coverages?

Schools should work ahead to review their coverages before the next renewal. Be sure to make known any changes to your operations and any growth you have experienced. You should also be aware of any changes in the industry that may effect you. If you have questions, ask your insurance agent for more information about your school’s insurance coverage.

Does a private school need to buy a separate policy if opened by a church?

Programs are available allowing a church to add a school or most nonprofit activities directly into their existing insurance program. This includes Private Schools, Thrift shops, Meals on Wheels, Food Banks and Outreach programs.
