There have been several unfortunate instances reported in the media about callous approach by certain schools with respect to the safety of school children during transit to and from the school. This has generated a deep concern regarding the safety of school children. The main focus of this paper is to design a tracking system for school going children. The system will be developed using 8051 microcontroller, GPS, GSM and a panic button along with an RFID tag and reader. An RFID reader along with 8051 microcontroller and GSM will be placed in the schoollbus. An android application will be developed for the parents to enable them to monitor their child's location using GPS along with geo-fencing.
