We are in a time when computational technology is being morphed, to address people's needs, into a form we have never been able to conceive especially with the advent of Internet of Things the opportunities are boundless. We propose a system to build a safety scheme for the school management and concerned parents regarding their respective children to ensure safe to-and-fro commute from home to school and back. The system will consist of three main units that are a bus unit, a school unit and parent unit. The bus unit which is a mobile device that acts as a central device that scans, connects to and reads a tag worn by child. The bus unit will be used to detect when a child boards or leaves the bus. These events trigger a notification message with relevant information communicated to the parent unit and school unit as and when the tag interacts with the bus unit. The system will have a mobile-based and web-based database-driven application that facilitates its management and provides useful information about the children to authorized personnel.
