STAFF ABSENCE PROTECTION

Staff Absence Protection

By schools, for schools

Our ethos allows us to provide affordable and sustainable solutions to prevent and reduce staff absences, alongside adding value to each membership

The UK’s most financially secure staff absence
protection mutual for Schools and Trusts

Our commitment goes beyond staff absence protection; we strive to foster a collaborative relationship, working closely with individual schools and Multi-Academy Trusts to develop proactive strategies and services to support staff health and wellbeing.

As member schools experience the advantages of their Education Mutual membership, they witness a more sustainable and efficient allocation of funds within the education community.

Our customised protection extends beyond the primary offering of staff absence protection; it’s a comprehensive platform that adds significant value to your school.

Unlike profit-driven absence insurance companies, we operate with a clear sense of purpose. Operating with minimal management costs, we ensure efficiency in our operations. This guarantees that every surplus pound goes directly towards supporting schools.
