Who are Education Mutual?
We’re a non-profit organisation that reinvests all surplus funds back into the education sector
We run solely for the benefit of our member schools, rather than any profiting shareholders
We provide our members with access to a wide range of health and wellbeing services at no additional cost
Education Mutual is a trusted partner and innovator in the education sector. As a CPC framework recommended provider by the Department for Education, we believe in the power of community and prioritise the assurance of budget certainty for our members.
Our ethos allows us to provide affordable and sustainable solutions to prevent and reduce staff absences, alongside adding value to each membership. Memberships are tailor-made to align with each school’s unique needs, securing extensive coverage customised to fit your budget requirements.
Member-owned
Education Mutual is 100% owned by its members and runs solely for the benefit of all member schools. Unlike staff absence insurers who seek to make a profit from your school for the benefit of their shareholders.
Board members
The Education Mutual board are made up of School Business Leaders and Head Teachers like yourselves who want the best for their school budgets, and share the same frustrations with the absence insurance market.
Our members have a voice
Each year, our member schools are invited to our Annual General Meeting, where they participate in the decision-making processes that serves the collective interests of all Education Mutual member schools.
We’re not a Community Interest Company (CIC)
Unlike certain competitors ‘mutuals’, Education Mutual operates with a clear sense of purpose. However, a CIC is owned by its shareholders with no obligation for them to involve service users in the decision making process.
Staff absence insurers will never change their ways. Neither will we. We believe in a sustainable future for Schools and Trusts.
Unlike profit-driven absence insurance companies, we operate with minimal management costs. This guarantees that every surplus pound goes directly towards supporting schools, rather than shareholders.
