Insurance
for ECS pupils
Comprehensive travel and medical insurance – included in your course fees
All ECS pupils benefit from comprehensive travel and medical insurance, included in the course fees at no extra cost. We take care of arranging and purchasing the insurance on behalf of every pupil, so parents don't need to organise or pay separately for this cover.
At English Country Schools, the safety and wellbeing of our pupils is our highest priority. Our courses are periodically reviewed by British Council inspectors, and every aspect of the programme is regularly risk-assessed for safety.
For additional peace of mind, the insurance we provide offers protection against a range of unexpected situations, including medical emergencies, cancellation for medical reasons, travel delays, and lost luggage or travel documents.
The policy also includes a complimentary 24/7 Digital Doctor Telemedicine service, allowing insured pupils and their parents to speak directly with doctors by telephone or video, in multiple languages.
You can find full details of the insurance cover, benefits and exclusions in the policy documents below.
