Plan the school run — drop-off, pick-up and the whole term

Pick your school from a UK-wide directory and let the whole term appear on everyone’s calendar.

The school run is one of the most relentless jobs a family has. Equal House lets you find your school from a national UK directory, set the days and times you do drop-off and pick-up, and record what each child needs on each day — then it puts the whole term onto everyone’s calendar so nothing is left to memory. You’ll find it under More → School Information, and setting up a school is part of Equal House Pro.

  • Find your school, don’t type it
  • Drop-off and pick-up, on the calendar
  • What each child needs, on the right day
  • Half-term and INSET days respected

What you get

01

Find your school, don’t type it

Search a directory of more than 30,000 schools across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland — by name or postcode — and pick yours in a tap. Siblings at the same school share one run.

02

Drop-off and pick-up, on the calendar

Set the weekdays and the drop-off and pick-up windows you run, choose the school-year dates, and Equal House puts every run on the family calendar across the whole term. A term runs for months and the free plan plans three days ahead, so setting up a school needs Equal House Pro.

03

What each child needs, on the right day

Record teacher, year and class, and set per-day uniform, PE and swimming kit — so “it’s a PE day” shows up on the calendar instead of being remembered at 8am.

04

Half-term and INSET days respected

Add closures — half terms, INSET days, bank holidays — and the runs simply skip them, so the calendar always matches the real school year. Routines set to run on school days skip them too.

School Information in Equal House: Oakfield Primary’s card with the school year, Monday to Friday, drop-off at 08:40 and pick-up at 15:10, and both children — Mia in Year 6 Oak with Miss Patel and Leo in Year 3 Willow with Mr Osei, each with PE kit on Wednesday and swimming kit on Friday — and one closure with no runs
The school, its run times and each child’s kit days.
