Similarly if your child incurs any liability towards a third party in respect, for example, of any injury caused by your child to that third party or damage caused to the third party's property the LEA will not be responsible for this unless it can be shown to be at fault in some way.

BUT there is in force a policy of insurance in respect of this trip which provides cover for the matters referred to in the above notes. A summary of the provisions of that policy are available from school.
