The Insurance company, will consider claims when the problem is due to accidental damage where the insurance company deems that the student has taken reasonable care of the device. The behaviours that make up reasonable care of your device are included in the Kawa of Care Agreement and attached to every new device. Taking Care of Your Device
To determine whether the device will be repaired under warranty or via an insurance claim your IT Provider will carry out an initial assessment and either repair it or send the damaged device away for a warranty assessment. If the device is not covered under warranty then the process for an insurance claim begins. (If the device is not covered by insurance then the device will be repaired at owners cost)

Notes
If the Kawa of Care agreement is not adhered to and/or the Insurance claim is not accepted, the parent is then liable for the full cost of the repair. The repair cost needs to be paid in full before the manufacturer will repair it.
The Trust as the purchaser of the devices is the policyholder. However the parent, who has entered into the credit sale contract with the Trust, is responsible for signing the form and answering “How the loss or damage occurred and who was involved? Including obtaining a Police Report if the device was stolen while under owner care.
Payments towards the cost of the device, agreed to in the credit sale contract, must be kept up to date while the device is being repaired.
