If you are a member of the DfE Risk Protection Arrangement (RPA) and require quotations for additional covers/services, please firstly check that your institution is a CPC Member. If you are already a member of CPC, please login and download the Additional Insurance Questionnaire available below and follow the instructions contained therein.
