School Run Taxis in Gerrards Cross
A dependable daily run to school and back for Gerrards Cross families: enhanced DBS-checked drivers, a price fixed for the term, and a car at the door when the bell times demand it.
Can a taxi do the school run in Gerrards Cross?
Yes. GX Executive And Taxi runs regular school journeys for families across Gerrards Cross (SL9) and South Bucks, in the morning, the afternoon or both. Each driver on school work is enhanced DBS-checked, licensed for private hire and insured. You agree a fixed daily or termly price before the first run, and we keep the same driver on the route wherever the rota allows.
Families use it for different reasons: two working parents with an early train, a child at a school several miles away, siblings at different schools, or cover for a few weeks while a parent is unwell. Child and booster seats are provided on request for younger children.

What should parents check before choosing a school run taxi?
Ask any provider the same questions, including us. Is the driver licensed for private hire by the council, and do they hold an enhanced DBS check? Will it be the same driver most days? What happens if the car is running late, or if your child is not at the gate? Is the price fixed for the term? Our guide to choosing a school run taxi expands on each point, and what "licensed and DBS-checked" means explains the checks in plain English.

How much does a school run taxi in Gerrards Cross cost?
Each route is priced individually as a fixed daily or termly amount. The figure depends on the distance between home and school, whether you need mornings, afternoons or both, and how many children share the car. Sharing with a sibling or a neighbour on the same route is the most effective way to reduce the cost per child. Once agreed, the price does not change with traffic or weather.
Which schools do you take children to?
Our routes follow the schools local families actually use. Near Gerrards Cross that includes the independent schools Maltman's Green, Gayhurst and Thorpe House. Further out we drive pupils to Dr Challoner's Grammar School in Amersham and Dr Challoner's High School in Little Chalfont, Chalfonts Community College, the Chalfont St Peter Church of England Academy and The Beacon, plus Beaconsfield High School, The Beaconsfield School, Burnham Grammar School and John Hampden Grammar School. Village primaries from Farnham Common and Fulmer to Denham Village and Iver Heath are covered too. If your school is not listed, ask.
What happens when my child is ill or the school closes?
Message or call as early as possible and we adjust that day's run. Because the arrangement is agreed with us directly, sick days, INSET days, snow closures and early finishes before the holidays can all be accommodated. At half-term and during the holidays the run simply pauses; half-term travel tips for families is useful for the time off.
Can you also do after-school clubs, fixtures and exams?
Yes. Late collections after rehearsals, matches and clubs can be added to the regular booking or arranged one at a time. Because we operate around the clock, an early breakfast-club drop or a late return from a school trip coach is no problem.

Yes. Each place has its own school run page with nearby schools and routes:
- School run taxis in Chalfont St Peter
- Chalfont St Giles and Little Chalfont, for the Amersham grammars
