Participants are also asked to provide information of any special dietary requirements. Pre-existing medical conditions must be disclosed and travel must not be undertaken against medical advice. A bespoke policy covers all participants whose travel is booked via the Central Bureau. Copies are not available in individual passenger names but a summary of cover and advice on the claims procedure is provided. Emergency contact details as provided by the Central Bureau.
Participants give contact details of next of kin as part of their application.
This information is immediately accessible to the Central Bureau should an emergency arise. Travel arrangements will be co-ordinated by the Central Bureau for all project participants on the basis of the professional requirements of the visit or exchange. In order to ensure best possible service for all participants and value for money from our travel agents on flights and insurance, it will not be possible to tailor travel arrangements or insurance packages for individuals. Participation on the programme is intended to enhance teachers' personal and professional development. The programme will be intensive and participants will derive most benefit if they dedicate their time to project activity.
