Frequently Asked Questions

What insurance does a private school need in Florida?

At minimum, you need general liability, professional liability (E&O), commercial property, and workers compensation. Most private schools also need student accident insurance, commercial auto for buses, cyber liability for data protection, and directors & officers liability to protect school leadership. Athletic programs may require additional coverage.

Does private school insurance cover athletic programs?

Standard general liability typically covers basic athletic activities, but you may need additional sports accident insurance for football, soccer, basketball, and other contact sports. Many schools purchase student accident policies that include athletic coverage with higher limits for sports-related injuries.

How much does private school insurance cost?

Costs vary based on enrollment, facilities, programs offered, and athletic activities. A small private school (100-200 students) might pay $15,000-30,000/year for comprehensive coverage. Larger schools with extensive facilities and athletic programs will have higher premiums. Factors include building value, number of employees, student enrollment, and sports offered.

Do we need abuse and molestation coverage?

Yes, this is critical coverage for any school. Many general liability policies exclude abuse and molestation claims, so you'll need to add this as a separate endorsement or standalone policy. This coverage protects the school from claims involving improper conduct by staff, volunteers, or other students. Background checks and proper hiring practices are essential.
