medical cover for students at MT colleges

[2dancersmum]

Has anyone any advice for finding medical cover for a 16 year hoping to start at a vocational college in September. The school used to have their own scheme but are advising to look elsewhere as their insurance partner hiked prices and imposed a large excess. She will be doing a lot of dancing so the cover would need to allow for this. I presume other NAPMers must have come accross this for their children at various performing arts schools? Any advice on where I should start looking?

There is a similar thread at the moment on balletcoforum maybe take a look

Thanks, I have done. This seems to be a new issue in the ballet schools as previously it has been standard to use the school policy - but they are tellling us now - not to. I just hoped this forum might reach a wider pool of knowledge as its a minefield to research.
