Everything you need to plan home education
Common Questions
If you have any questions, please contact us at hello@plan-ed.co.uk
Will Plan-Ed work on my device?
Yes. Plan-Ed is a website application, meaning it will work on PC, Apple or Android phone, tablets or even consoles that allow access to web pages. It's been built 'mobile-first', meaning it will look and function great on a small screen, as well as a large PC monitor. You can even 'install' the application to your device so you have a quick link to open Plan-Ed like any other app.
What age is Plan-Ed for?
It works for any age. Because it's a "Content-Agnostic" planner (meaning you create and manage your own subjects), it works just as well for a 5-year-old doing "Phonics & Mud Kitchen" as it does for a 16-year-old tracking "GCSE Physics."
Is my children's data safe?
Absolutely. We don't sell data, we don't have ads, and we don't have public profiles. Your family's data is encrypted and visible only to you. We built this as parents who care about privacy just as much as you do.
Can I use the Reports as part of my evidence for the Local Authority?
We recommend if you have been asked to provide a Home Education progress report for your Local Authority, that you write that in your own voice as Parents or Carers. Plan-Ed does have a comprehensive report you can generate which will show you a more detailed history of your learning per subject over a longer time period, which you can then use to prompt the feedback to the Local Authority, but we do not provide any structured templated report you should send to the Authority as learning evidence without significant input from you.
Do I need to be "techy" to use it?
Not at all. We designed Plan-Ed to be simple to use for busy parents, no matter your technical knowledge. If you can use Facebook or send an email, you can run your entire home education from here.
Can my whole family use Plan-Ed?
Yes. We know that Home Education is often a team effort, sometimes across different homes. Plan-Ed allows you to add multiple adults to a single family account. Each person gets their own secure login, so you can share the load without sharing your password.
Can I sign-up today?
We would love you to, but not quite yet. We are selecting families from the Waiting List to be our first wave of Plan-Ed users and hope to fully launch in Spring 2026
How much will Plan-Ed cost?
We haven't set a final price yet because we are focused on building features, not billing systems. We know Home Education costs can mount, but we want to be fair and affordable to the families using the system. We will announce pricing with our roll out plans in Spring 2026.
Should I join the Waiting List?
Absolutely! Our early testers are helping us shape the future of the system. To say thank you, anyone who is selected to join the Beta and helps us find bugs will receive a special "Founding Member" status with potentially a lifetime discount when we launch publicly.
I've joined the Waiting List, now what?
Thank you, we really appreciate it! We select small waves of Families to start using the system to ensure we are able to support your journey. Eventually everybody who joins the Waiting List will be contacted to be offered a Subscription, but you may also be selected for our early access period. We will work through the Waiting List as soon as we can!
Is this just for UK families?
Right now, we are are focusing on the UK launch ahead of considerations for a wider international rollout over the next 12 months.
