Professional Indemnity
There are two main ways SEC members can obtain preferential rates for indemnity via this website.
Firstly, as a further service to Members the Society of Education Consultants (SEC) have decided to act as an introducer to Professional Insurance Agents Ltd (PIA Ltd), a specialist Professional Indemnity Insurance broker with 20 years of experience. This is in addition to the arrangement SEC has for its members with Icon/Jelf insurers whose information is also set out on this page.
The link on this page allows you to access PIA Ltd Online Quote & Buy Facility which will offer you up to 8 different insurers' quotes for Professional Indemnity, Public Liability, Employers Liability and other insurances within minutes at very competitive prices.
All transactions, advice on policies, claims and any other queries should all be directed exclusively to Professional Insurance Agents Ltd either via info@professionalinsuranceagents.co.uk or by telephone on 01323 648000 where your queries and concerns can be answered.
The Society of Education Consultants (SEC) is not able to advise members on insurance related matters nor recommend any particular company or policy. If you decide to use this facility you should be clear that the SEC has no connection with that decision, your policy or PIA Ltd (other than the small introductory fee SEC earns).
You can link from here to the Professional Insurance Agents website and request an instant quote.
Secondly, we have a long-standing arrangement with Icon Insurance for them to provide discounted Professional Indemnity Insurance to our members.
In our increasingly litigious society consultants are increasingly finding themselves the subject of claims for alleged negligence in the advice and services they provide to their client. Professional Indemnity Insurance will indemnify you against damages awarded from such occurrences, including the costs associated with defending spurious allegations.
Icon Insurance have agreed to provide Professional Indemnity cover at the following guideline (starting) rates:
| Limit of Indemnity | Premium | |
| £ 250,000 | £ 175.00 +IPT | |
| £ 500,000 | £ 275.00 + IPT | |
| £ 1,000,000 | £ 425.00 + IPT | |
| £ 2,000,000 | £ 725.00 + IPT | |
| Excess | Nil |
Public Liability and Employers Liability cover can be added to the policy if required.
