Unless covered by their home household policy, parents are strongly advised to take out the Personal Effects insurance scheme offered by the school as the main school insurance policy does not cover personal effects. Please note that there are variable cover limits and a claims excess for laptop claims. Please review the policy information document for full details of the policy and exclusions.
If you have recently purchased an approved device from First Technology, you will see that they offer both a 3-year 'Warranty Standard' at £72 and a 3-year 'Warranty Plus' at £240, the latter includes accidental damage for the device only. It is parents' choice whether to opt in to that or to opt in to the policies detailed below. Please contact First Technology with any queries about the device warranties they offer.

Parents may opt for pupils to be covered by a private medical scheme. If required, a subscription for AXA PPP is added to accounts to provide cover against the cost of private specialist and hospital treatment. However, this does not cover the cost of prescriptions, dentists and some medical specialists not covered by AXA PPP, and parents will be charged for any extra cost arising from these.
