7. Accidents

The following comments are to be made about the procedure to be followed in the event of an accident:

• the coordinator must inform the School and the family as quickly as possible.
• if the pupil has to return home, the coordinator will make arrangements for him/her to be accompanied by a duly accredited person.

Medical expenses resulting from an accident will normally be reimbursed by the relevant Health Services (Sickness insurance of parents, accompanying adults and teachers - School insurance). However, it may prove wise, depending on the destination planned, to take out complementary insurance to cover all or a proportion of the expenses incurred. There is nothing to prevent the School from taking out such insurance for the pupils, teachers and accompanying adults concerned.
