The risk protection arrangement (RPA) is an alternative to commercial insurance for academy trusts. Under RPA, the UK government covers the losses instead of commercial insurance.
All academy trusts can opt in to RPA; this can be immediately or up to 12 months in advance.If you opt into RPA, the EFA will deduct £20 per pupil per year from your GAG.
To join, you need to complete a form which can be found on the GOV.UK website
