Peñalara GHC is a software, used to create and generate school timetables. It was created in 1993 in Segovia, Spain, and it is currently used in 3.500 schools - most of them located in Spain and Latin America.

In 2002, Peñalara GHC was selected by the Region of Murcia as the timetabling software of choice in all their public high schools, followed by the autonomous communities of Madrid , Castile and León  and the Valencian Community, while it is also widely used in Aragon and Asturias.

Peñalara GHC is integrated with all the school management software applications of each autonomous community, such as SICE, PLUMIER XXI , SENECA, SAUCE, and IES2000. In 2017, the private platform ODUCA integrated Peñalara GHC as their timetable maker in their school management software. Additionally, free software applications also import timetables produced by Peñalara GHC.

The principal defining feature of Peñalara GHC is its engine, which automatically solves the issues of making timetables for teachers, classrooms, subjects and groups. The program's mechanism finds a solution, and while it optimises it, tries to meet all the optional conditions that have been entered into the program.

Peñalara GHC is currently available in english and Spanish, and it has been currently selected by Microsoft to appear in its Windows Store.
