📎 Bus Tracking

✏️ More about this module

School bus tracking Bus Tracking : School Authorities and Parents can track the school bus on a map and get notifications for events that matter.

Due to the growing incidences of misbehavior/molestation of school children in school buses, the security of the children while traveling is a major concern today.

To address this issue, we present the GPS Track feature in the eSchoolApp: Once the school opts for bus tracking for this functionality in the eSchoolApp, eSchool bus kit is fitted by our team in all the buses of the school. The school can then define bus routes and bus stops for each student, using our software accessible from the school. That’s it!

Now on a daily basis, as the bus moves around the city picking up students in the morning and dropping them off in the evening, the parents can view the exact location of the bus and get notifications when the bus reaches their stop. Parents will only be given access to information on the bus on which their child is traveling.
