If a parent or student sues, teachers are protected by general and professional liability insurance from having to pay for their own legal fees or judgments.
Even if you hold yourself to high standards, mistakes do happen, and parents may sue, costing you money in the long run.
For instance, you could be sued for wounds that happen to understudies while you are managing.
How Would I Get Educator Risk Protection?
Membership in an educational organization, such as the National Education Association or the Association of American Educators, can provide you with teacher liability insurance.
You can also purchase coverage directly from a small-business insurance provider like Thimble or an education-focused insurer like Forrest T. Jones.
A large portion of these organizations offer web-based statements and applications.
