  • When a local authority or other body acting for schools wishes to start a schools’ staff absence scheme giving greater service for lower cost
  • When a mutual scheme is underperforming or having difficulty competing with the commercial insurance market
  • When the organiser of a mutual fund wants to optimise it and reduce the costs, time and effort involved with it
We have clients, well they are partners really, of all sizes. We have small metropolitan borough councils with less than 50 schools. We have medium sized unitary authorities and then we have county council authorities who have hundreds of schools in their schemes. Whatever your size we can help set up or improve your scheme. We now have groups of authorities and groups of schools who we are working with to form supermutuals. The larger the number of schools, the more we can maximise savings for schools.
  • In the first instance we can provide advice on the “dos and donts” of staff absence mutual schemes
  • We can provide detailed micro-analysis of your schools absence history to calculate appropriate rates and factors which are then applied to a scheme rating mechanism
  • We can provide a unique web-based software platform which enables you to manage all aspect of your scheme with ease
  • We can provide any further administrative and support resource to run your scheme with the minimum of effort
