A GLOBAL travel insurance provider, battleface, today announced the launch of its new Educational Travel Insurance Policy, developed in partnership with ABTA – The Travel Association.
Created specifically for students, staff, and educational groups, the policy combines extensive cover with simple administration, supported by Robin Assist’s global assistance to provide reassurance for schools, families, and travel organisers.
Key Features of the Product:
• Comprehensive medical cover abroad – Up to £10,000,000, ensuring students and staff have access to top-tier medical care during their travels
• Trip cancellation and disruption protection – No excess on cancellation or travel delay, giving peace of mind in unpredictable situations
• Coverage for students and staff – Including individuals up to 75 years old, making it suitable for a wide range of participants
• Lost or delayed baggage assistance – Up to £1,000 to support students when travel plans go awry
• 24/7 global assistance from Robin Assist – Multilingual emergency support, available anywhere in the world
• Early booking options – Policies can be booked up to 365 days in advance, helping schools and families plan confidently
Why This Product Stands Out:
• Tailored for schools and groups – Flexible cancellation limits and activity cover designed to suit different trip types
• Less admin, more support – Streamlined systems simplify policy management for operators and schools.
• Member-driven development – Created by battleface with insight from ABTA members to meet real-world needs
• Reassurance for parents and schools – Backed by a global insurance specialist providing 24/7 travel and medical assistance
Sophie Goodchild, Managing Director UK at battleface said: “We are thrilled to launch our Educational Travel Insurance Policy in partnership with ABTA, offering students, staff, and schools comprehensive protection and peace of mind while traveling. This product is designed with the real needs of educational groups in mind, combining robust medical cover, flexible trip protection, and 24/7 global assistance.”
Claire Biddle, Commercial Director at ABTA said: “Educational travel is a hugely important part of our sector, and we know from our members that a dedicated insurance scheme was urgently needed. This partnership with battleface delivers a solution shaped with input from educational travel specialists, giving schools, parents, and operators the confidence they need when organising trips abroad.”
