Frequently Asked Questions

What insurance does a private school need?
Private schools need commercial general liability, professional liability (educational malpractice), cyber liability for student data, commercial property, directors and officers, and employment practices liability. Sexual abuse and molestation liability is also critical for any organization working with minors.
What is educational malpractice insurance?
Educational malpractice (professional liability) covers claims alleging that an educational institution or instructor failed to provide adequate education, resulting in financial harm to a student. It also covers claims arising from professional advice given in an educational context.
Why do educational organizations need cyber liability?
Educational institutions store significant amounts of sensitive student data — personal information, health records, and financial data. A data breach can result in significant costs for breach response, regulatory fines, and student claims under PIPEDA and provincial privacy laws.
What is sexual abuse and molestation liability insurance?
Sexual abuse and molestation (SAM) liability covers claims alleging sexual abuse or molestation by employees, volunteers, or contractors. It is essential for any organization that works with minors and is often excluded from standard CGL policies.
Do online education businesses need insurance?
Yes. Online education businesses face professional liability, cyber liability, and intellectual property exposures. If you provide advice or instruction that students rely on, professional liability is essential regardless of whether you operate online or in person.
