Did you know that you may be able to make a compensation claim if your child becomes injured at school? You may also be able to make a claim if your child's property including clothing becomes damaged at school.

Schools have a duty of care to their pupils, staff and visitors; therefore, if an accident occurs as a result of someone being negligent and at fault, the injured party may be able to claim compensation for their injuries or damaged property.

The most common types of accidents that occur at schools include:
- accident when a child is using school equipment / playgroup apparatus
- slip / trip on the school premises
- accident during a school trip
- school bus accident
