University of Physical Education and Sports PALESTRA, spol. s r. o. (hereinafter referred to as “VŠTVS PALESTRA”) has an insurance policy for liability for damage caused to another person’s property or health. Fulfillment within the framework of this contract applies to cases where an accident or property damage occurs due to the fault of the school or its employees, e.g. a teacher incorrectly instructs students during class and an injury occurs as a result of his actions.

This insurance does not apply to accidents without fault of the employee (teacher), e.g. falling down the stairs, injuries during teaching not caused by the teacher, loss of property from unsecured areas, etc.

Therefore, we recommend that students take out a separate insurance policy dealing with accident insurance, property damage, or a separate civil liability insurance policy.
