Interim Sickness Insurance Scheme

The Sickness Insurance Scheme is in place to provide mutual aid and share risks; it is not an insurance scheme. The scheme is beneficial to maintained schools as it shares the risk. However, the exceptional circumstances of the Covid-19 risk means that the scheme could break without additional measures in place.

Please review the School's Sickness Insurance Scheme - Impact of Covid 19 and Amendments for April 2020 document to see how this revised scheme and claims process affects your school.
