WHAT WE OFFER

We’ve got you and your children covered when it comes to their education and meeting up with their school fees. Our Education Protection Plan is perfect for times you might be unable to meet up with paying school fees, and guarantees the continuation of your child’s education in the unfortunate event of death or permanent disablement. If a parent acquires this insurance plan in the name of one child or more and is unable to pay for the child’s education due to Death, Critical Illness (optional) or a permanent total disablement (optional), Leadway continues from the point the sponsor/parent/guardian becomes unable to do so and pays the Child’s School fees for the rest of the current academic level.

DETAILS

With one policy, you could cover multiple children with varying outstanding education years.

The sum insured will be paid for a child to complete his or her current level of education (e.g. primary, secondary, university) at the time the payment becomes due. There is also an option to protect the sum assured against inflation by having it increase at 5%, 10% or 15% annually.

Minimum policy term is one (1) year and maximum policy term is 20 years for Death, Permanent Total Disablement (PTD) and Critical illness covers.

Minimum entry age for this plan is 18 years. At 65, the policy ceases for Life and Permanent Total Disablement (PTD) cover while the critical illness cover ceases at age 60. All ages are computed as age next birthday.

If the plan is to cover as many children as needed regardless of different education levels, separate policies will be issued to you per child named. The premium payable depends upon the child’s current school or tuition fees, and you can arrange to pay the premium annually or each term. Premiums also depend on your chosen sum assured, your age, the duration of the policy and the sum assured indexation rate chosen.

After 2 or more consecutive claim-free years, you receive a cashback payment of 10% of one year’s annualized premium paid. Afterwards, the cashback is payable for every year in which there is no claim. You can pay an additional premium to extend the plan, so it applies if you contract certain illnesses or suffer a total permanent disability because of an accident. The payment of a claim terminates the cashback payment permanently.

BENEFITS

Should death occur during the policy term, the benefit payable shall be the life cover sum assured applicable at the time of death. There are two options allowable for benefit payment which you have to choose from:
Option 1: A lump sum benefit. This implies that a one-off payment of the sum assured will be made if death occurs within the policy term. For example, a 5-year policy is chosen with a sum assured of N5, 000,000. Assuming that premiums are paid to date, if death occurs in the third year, N5,000,000 is payable as a one-off payment. This one-off payment also applies to the Critical Illness and Permanent Total Disablement (PTD) covers, where selected.
Option 2: An annual benefit payment for the outstanding school years. As an illustration, if a policyholder chooses this option for a N10 Million sum assured and a 5-year policy term, the benefit payable on death in the 2nd year will be N2 Million annually for the outstanding term of 3 years. For Critical Illness and Permanent Total Disablement (PTD) covers, the benefits are paid similarly.
