Independent broker Alan Boswell Group has teamed with carrier Peach to grow its teachers’ liability scheme. The scheme dates back 20 years and was first established to cover self-employed teachers and lecturers as well as those offering tuition, lecturing, or coaching outside of their main employment.

David Charles, account executive at Alan Boswell, said: “Niche schemes like ours do not always get the attention and level of service that they deserve. We wanted to partner with an insurer who understands what we are trying to achieve – both now and in the longer term.

“We want to be able to pick up the phone and talk to someone who knows the industry and can make quick decisions. We were impressed with Peach’s agile approach and openness when working together on the scheme.”

Ryan Bendelow (pictured), head of commercial trading and distribution at Peach, added: “As the scheme is relatively simple, there was not the need to make significant alterations. We see our collaboration with ABG very much as a long-term partnership, so while this specific scheme is not huge, we are committed to providing the level of love and attention needed to support its growth plans.”
