Commercial Insurance
Moving to Academy status provides a greater degree of autonomy, including the freedom to purchase essential services from both public and private sector providers. This ability provides an Academy with the opportunity to tailor services to specifically meet their unique requirements, rather than contribute to generic "buy back" services provided by the Local Authority. This ability to purchase bespoke services is a great opportunity but can be daunting, particularly in the first instance, where decisions have to be made in new areas where experience of the financial purchases may be limited.
Lucas Fettes recognise the fact that insurance and considerations of the associated risk management can often be seen as a confusing and potentially intimidating subject so our approach is to work with you to arrange cost effective cover, quickly and efficiently, tailored to your specific needs. Lucas Fettes have developed a consultative approach to the risk management and insurance requirements of all types of educational risks. The experience and professionalism we offer has already won the company the appointment to act as insurance brokers and risk advisors to many independent schools and other educational establishments, most notably we act on behalf of the majority of Colleges and Halls in the University of Oxford.
We are totally independent and work exclusively to design an insurance portfolio for you. We act as independent advisors and assessors and work with a variety of different insurers to provide specialist insurance solutions by listening to your requirements for cover premium and service. We offer competitive, bespoke insurance portfolios to protect the reputation, assets and potential liabilities incurred by the Academy and its Governors by thoroughly understanding the risks involved with the daily operations undertaken within the Academy.
