Zimbabwe Insurance Brokers Limited (ZIB) has introduced a new education protection plan, The School Care Fees Protector, designed to ensure the continuity of a child’s education in the unfortunate event of a parent’s or guardian’s death or permanent disability — whether due to illness or accident.
The innovative policy provides peace of mind to parents and guardians by guaranteeing that school fees will continue to be paid even in times of crisis. Under the plan, ZIB will cover the remaining balance of school fees required for a child to complete Grade 7 for primary school and Upper 6 for secondary level.
According to ZIB, the School Care Fees Protector comes in flexible packages suited for different education levels.
Primary Level: Premium of US$5.60 per term with a benefit of US$100 per term.
Secondary Level: Premium of US$3.60 per term with a benefit of US$100 per term.
Platinum Package: For schools with fees above US$100 per term, coverage is tailored to match the specific amount.
To get a quotation, schools or parents are simply required to provide the termly school fees per student and the total number of students enrolled.
ZIB said the policy is part of its commitment to empowering families and promoting access to uninterrupted education for all Zimbabwean children.
“Education is the greatest investment parents make in their children’s future. The School Care Fees Protector ensures that investment continues even when life’s uncertainties strike,” said a ZIB representative.
