When Schools and Education Companies need insurance

  • 01

    A school wants to share education records with you

    Under FERPA’s school-official exception, your service and the school’s control over the records matter. Map the data flow before your cyber review.

  • 02

    You’re signing a district contract

    Compare its insurance and data terms with your proposed forms and endorsements before you sign.

  • 03

    You’re opening a new site or campus

    Schedule the building interest, equipment and contents, and other parties’ property at each location.

  • 04

    You’re hiring instructors or remote staff

    Give the broker every work state and duty, and check how remote staff and lab roles are classified.

  • 05

    Staff will drive students or equipment

    List owned, rented and personal vehicles and how they’re used. A general liability limit won’t answer the vehicle question.

Questions from Schools and Education Companies

Also known as school insurance, private school insurance, edtech insurance, education technology insurance, education company insurance and tutoring company insurance.

What does edtech insurance usually include?

Cyber for the student data you hold comes first, with professional liability or tech E&O for the service schools rely on, plus general liability and workers’ compensation. A school adds property and auto. Spot maps which ones you need.

Does FERPA tell us which insurance to buy?

No. FERPA guidance explains when a school may share education records with an outside provider and on what conditions. It doesn’t define what a policy covers.

What should an edtech vendor share before a cyber quote?

Share what the service collects, where it’s stored, who can access it, which vendors handle it and the customer’s limits on its use. Your Spot team turns that into the submission.

Is professional liability the same as tech E&O for an edtech company?

Not necessarily. If you host software or run integrations, ask which services the proposed form treats as professional services. Spot compares the definitions directly.

We run a school and a software product. Do we need separate policies?

Each activity needs to be described, and some may need their own policy. We map entities and services first, then ask brokers how each proposal handles them.

Our broker insures the school. Can they cover the software side too?

Ask them first. Spot works alongside your broker on both parts of the business and takes no commissions on premiums. Software risks are a different market from school property, and if theirs doesn’t extend that far, you can switch.
