Professional Liability Insurance

Teacher candidates must obtain liability insurance through membership in the student chapter of the Georgia Association of Educators (SGAE), the Student Professional Association of Georgia Educators (SPAGE), or the National Education Association. Teacher candidates who hold a paid position within a school system such as a paraprofessional, substitute teacher, bus driver and/or staff (school nutrition, maintenance, school support or central office personnel) must have a support level liability insurance policy. All certified staff in schools and school system offices, including counselors, social workers, technology specialist, nurses and security officers must purchase the professional level of liability insurance. These policies are typically required for employment in a school system; however, when coverage is needed, it must be purchased through Georgia Association of Educators (GAE), the Professional Association of Georgia Educators (PAGE), or the National Education Association.
