Insurance for Schools

3. Certificates of currency

Occasionally schools will be asked to supply proof that the school is adequately covered by the department through insurance. This is provided by way of a Certificate of Currency (also known as a Confirmation of Cover). It is a summary of the cover provided.

Schools may be asked to supply proof of the following covers:

  1. Public Liability:
    • school activity – use of non-school facilities
    • work experience/work structured learning
    • contractors – refuse removalists, school cleaners, basic maintenance works
  2. Property:
    • Property Insurance
    • Contract Works Insurance

These certificates, and copies of VMIA policies, are available in the Resources tab.
