I Would Definitely Recommend SAS!
We moved over to SAS for our Staff Sickness Insurance and have been really happy with the move. The quote was very competitive and very flexible – allowing us to cover our TA’s for the first time. The whole well being package has been really well received. Emma from SAS couldn’t have been more helpful in the set up, and with any queries throughout the year, she happily hosted an online meeting for all the staff to explain how it all works. Uploading documentation, staff changes etc. are all really easy through the portal. Based on our experience this year, I would definitely recommend SAS.

Great Value for Money
Our school has used Schools Advisory Service for the past 7 years. The prices are competitive which includes a vast array of Wellbeing support i.e. physio sessions, counselling etc. The portal is very easy to use from uploading staff to making a claim. You also have the benefit of actually talking to a real person if you need to. We have found them great value for money and will continue to use them and I have sent an email to a couple of schools about your service!

Everything exceeded my expectations.
We have had an amazing experience with this service. From start to finish, everything exceeded my expectations. The team was professional, attentive, and made sure all our needs were met promptly. Their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction truly set them apart. I felt valued and supported throughout the entire process. Thanks again to Abby for her continued support throughout the year.

You Have Supported Me so Much!
I have had the last session of my latest counselling session package today. I have felt a massive benefit from having a counsellor in my life to support me and wanted to thank you for organising this for me. You have supported me so much!

Certainly be Arranging Another Day Next Year
I just wanted to thank SAS for the excellent provision of the staff health screening day that we had at Bushmead yesterday. We managed to arrange for 20 members of staff to access the service and the feedback has been an overwhelming success. We will most certainly be arranging another day next year!
Sharon is a true credit to your team. She made everyone feel comfortable and welcomed and it was very obvious that her professionalism was the highest of standards which reassured everyone who attended the session.

Improved our employee’s wellbeing and reduced absences
Our employees value the services SAS offer and we continually receive positive feedback about the accessibility and benefits of the services. The wellbeing services has helped to support our employees who need to access these services but face long NHS waiting times. This has improved our employee’s wellbeing and reduced absences. The health screening service and GP helpline have been well received by our employees as well as the communications that SAS send through to keep employee wellbeing high up on the agenda. Thanks so much for all your support!

Really Well Received by Staff
We have had our staff health checks with Monica, and this was really well received by staff. The number of positive comments was amazing, it was so useful and gave staff such peace of mind! Today I have had contact with Sharon from your wellbeing team and she was wonderful! I am so impressed by her speedy professional response and her kind and caring manner, I think she may well have changed someone’s life for the better today. Credit is well deserved and I want to send a big thank you for everything your team do.

Very Positive Impact on My Life
I just wanted to send a note of thank you for facilitating the physio sessions which I am now receiving. I was so impressed by the speed, efficiency and care. It really is making a very positive impact on my life and managing this injury easier, not to mention allaying my fears of it not being anything too sinister.
It also gives me confidence to use – and recommend – any of the other services, should I/my colleagues require any. As you will be aware, our wellbeing is essential to us being able to be the practitioners we aim to be, and the School Wellbeing service can enable this.

High Quality Support
At St George’s, senior leaders and governors are committed to helping our staff thrive. A key part of our ‘living well’ strategy is the breadth and quality of employee support services that we access through SAS insurance. It allows us to action wellbeing and offer our staff high quality support for their mental health and wellbeing.

I recommend school leaders to book a session
Our Mindfulness session equipped our staff with some simple and effective strategies to try when feeling stressed and overwhelmed; and in our job, this is very useful! We enjoyed exploring reasons behind stress and anxiety, and how to focus the mind to help overcome these feelings. The delivery was to our staff as a group and was done in a way that enabled all to be involved as much as they felt comfortable. It was interactive, informative and thought provoking. I recommend school leaders to book a session if they haven’t done so yet!

Thank you SAS!
As a people centred MAT, we are always looking for ways to improve staff wellbeing and demonstrating in a tangible way that wellbeing matters. Having bought into the staff insurance scheme, ALL our employees, nearly 1100, were entitled to the School Wellbeing App. This is a handy tool on your mobile which enables individuals to access GP appointments, counselling, physiotherapy, advice – the list is endless. Staff across all areas of our trust have spoken about the difference this has made. Quite simply, in my view it was the single most important strategy that aided well being last year – individuals having quicker access to advice and also taking personal ownership of their wellbeing. Thank you SAS!
