One platform
School bus tracking for schools and parents
SafeBus is a school bus tracking and transport management platform built for schools in Nigeria. Parents get peace of mind, and schools get control.
For Parents
The Parent App: know when the bus is close
A simple, reassuring view of your own child's bus journey, made to be opened on a phone in a few seconds.
- Follow your child's assigned bus during a trip.
- Get pickup, arrival and drop-off updates in the app.
- See when the bus is approaching your child's stop.
- Look back at past journeys.
Privacy first. A parent can only see their own linked children,
and never other families' information.

Why SafeBus
More than a vehicle tracker: school transport management
A tracker shows where a vehicle is. A school transport platform also knows who is on it, where it is going, and who needs to be told.
An ordinary vehicle tracker
Good at one thing: showing a vehicle.
- Mainly shows the vehicle's location.
- May give basic movement and speed information.
- Usually does not manage the student transport workflow.
- May not offer school-specific parent updates or student assignments.
SafeBus
Tracking plus the school transport workflow.
- Vehicle tracking combined with school transport management Working
- Clear trip assignments for every bus Working
- A parent view of their own child's journey Working
- School admin dashboard for fleet and trip oversight Working
- Student, route and stop assignments Working
- School-level data separation and access control Working
- Arrival estimates and delay alerts Testing on real roads
"Working" means built and tested with demo data. Real-road pilot testing is the next stage.

FAQ
School bus tracking: frequently asked questions
What is SafeBus?
SafeBus is a school transport platform for schools and parents. It helps a school run its buses and lets parents follow their own child's journey.
How does bus tracking work?
SafeBus follows each school bus trip from start to finish. The school sees the bus on its live map, and parents can follow their own child's bus. We are happy to explain more in a demonstration.
How do parents access their child's bus information?
The school invites each parent. Parents sign in securely and see only their own children's transport information.
Can a school manage multiple buses?
Yes. SafeBus is built for schools that run more than one bus.
What happens if the connection is interrupted?
SafeBus is designed to cope with patchy connections, and the school can tell when a bus has stopped reporting. Ask us about it in a demonstration.
How is student information protected?
Access depends on the person's role and school. A parent sees only their own linked children, and each school's data is kept separate. See the privacy notice for more.
