Tort liability of educational institutions
1. Should the school be held responsible for students' injuries at school?

1. Students are injured at school, and the school is responsible. If a student is injured at school, if the student has personal accident insurance, the insurance company has the obligation to pay compensation and can get compensation from the insurance company. Obtaining insurance compensation cannot exempt the school and other relevant responsible persons from the liability for compensation.

2. Legal basis: Article 1 199 of the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC).

If a person without civil capacity suffers personal injury during his study and life in a kindergarten, school or other educational institution, the kindergarten, school or other educational institution shall bear tort liability; However, those who can prove that they have fulfilled their educational management responsibilities will not bear tort liability.

Article 120 1

If a person with no capacity for civil conduct or a person with limited capacity for civil conduct suffers personal injury from a third person other than a kindergarten, school or other educational institution during his study and life, the third person shall bear the tort liability; Kindergartens, schools or other educational institutions that fail to fulfill their management responsibilities shall bear corresponding supplementary responsibilities.
