Supply Teacher Budget Protection

Can your supply teacher budget cope with multiple staff absences caused by flu or stress? How many days of unexpected staff absence does it take to put your supply teacher budget under pressure?

Supply teacher budget protection provides an academy with the peace of mind that when it sets its annual budget for supply teachers, should it exceed that budget, the overspend will be covered.

Cover Provided

Supply teacher budget protection insurance allows an academy to set an agreed and reasonable annual budget for its supply teacher costs. It then simply pays an annual insurance premium, so that should the academy exceed its projected annual supply teacher budget, it can claim up to £50,000 of further supply teacher costs. This allows the academy to budget for the certainty that the supply teacher budget is protected, rather than for the costs of unforeseen or unusual levels of staff absence within an academy.
