Student Insurance

As required by the Education Act and the Ministry of Education, the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board annually provides parents with information about cost-effective student accident insurance coverage via student carrier "Insuremykids Pro-tection Plan." Forms were distributed to students during the first week of school.

Effective September 2012, the Dufferin-Peel CDSB requires parents/guardians to give written acknowledgement that they have received information regarding Student Insurance - expecially for those students participating in out-of-school excursions and/or extra-curricular sports activities.

Although enrolment is voluntary, the Board encourages parents to take advantage of the excursions/field trips, or, dental coverage for those who do not already have dental coverage. Parents alone have the right to insure their children.

There are two options for enrolment:

  1. Complete the traditional form and mail it in.
  2. Photocopy the form and fax it to Reliable Life at 1-905-522-7211 or 1-800-463-KIDS (5437).

Please note that the Dufferin-Peel CDSB does not provide insurance for students against any accidental death, disability, dismemberment, or medical expenses that might occur as a result of an accident during school activities, including sports events and field trips.

Please note also, parents/guardians are required to acknowledge reading this information on all signed permission forms in
