Safety & safeguarding
Each pool is private to one school. Every parent and carer verifies their identity before they can see or join it.
Drivers are verified. School Pool proposes matches by address and timetable, and nothing is arranged until the parents involved approve it.
Every shared run can be followed live, so you know when the children have arrived.
Costs are split fairly between families, in line with the cost-sharing norms of private car insurance. Drivers never make a profit.
Your PA reads the school messages you connect and confirms key dates with you. Forms are sent and payments made only when you approve them.
The School Pot card is a virtual card issued on regulated card rails. Pots are yours to spend on uniform, e-learning, and school and community projects.
We hold the minimum needed to run the rota and the calendar, with your consent. Schools and councils see aggregated reporting, never an individual family's details.
