The Problem

School holidays are the single biggest demand driver nobody has clean data on.

Every business serving families knows this intuitively. But 207 local authorities publish term dates in different formats, at different times, with different structures. Schools set INSET days independently.

The result: planning teams either ignore it, track it manually in spreadsheets, or pay consultants to do it badly. By the time you know half of Manchester is on half-term, the staffing window has closed.

How It Works

Derived intelligence, not raw data.

We don't just serve term dates. We compute what matters: the percentage of schools on holiday in any area, on any date.

GET /v1/overlap?postcode=SW1A&date=2026-07-21
{ "postcode": "SW1A", "date": "2026-07-21", "schools_total": 47, "schools_on_holiday": 29, "overlap_pct": 61.7, "holiday_type": "summer", "demand_indicator": "high" // One call. One number. Instant clarity. }

Holiday Overlap Scores

Percentage of schools on holiday for any UK postcode district, on any date. The core insight that drives every downstream decision.
