FAQ's for School Bus & Students
How does the school bus GPS tracking system work?
Btracking’s school bus GPS trackers and Pro Fleet platform provides real-time bus location, route tracking, and accurate, real-time updated ETAs for each stop. From the platform, school administrators see real-time bus locations, route progress, delays, and missed stops. Parent see the real-time bus location and stop ETA on the ParentLink app, and receive alerts on arrivals, departures, and delays.
What is the ParentLink app and how does it help guardians?
The ParentLink app is a free tool for iPhone and Android that shows the bus’s live location, estimated time of arrival at a student’s assigned stop, and notifications of when a student boards or exits the bus (if student tracking is enable by the school). It’s designed to give families peace of mind with real-time visibility.
How are student pickups and drop-offs tracked?
There are three ridership tracking options:
1. Mini BLE tags worn by students send automatic check-in/out data to the GPS tracker.
2. RFID cards or fobs scanned on entry log each boarding.
3. DriverLink app with RFID reader records student ID and bus location without needing vehicle hardware.
Each method provides time-stamped logs visible in the ParentLink app and school dashboard.
