School Bus & Van Tracking in Kolkata
SchoolTrack tracks school buses and private school vans live in Kolkata, West Bengal. Parents see the vehicle move on a map in real time and get an alert the moment their child boards or gets off — whether the bus belongs to the school or the van belongs to a private driver.
If your school in Kolkata runs no bus, you can find a verified van driver covering your area, see the monthly fare before you ask, and track that van the same way. Tracking runs from the driver’s own phone, so there is no GPS hardware to buy on either side.

Why schools in Kolkata use bus tracking
What makes the runs here different.
Kolkata has one of the oldest private school-van cultures in India, much of it run by single owner-drivers who have carried the same families for years and have never had anything to show a parent.
SchoolTrack covers schools across Kolkata, with routes reaching Salt Lake, New Town, Behala and Ballygunge.

Questions parents in Kolkata ask
Straight answers, no sales pitch.
Is school bus tracking available in Kolkata?
Yes. SchoolTrack provides live GPS school bus tracking to schools across Kolkata, West Bengal, covering Salt Lake, New Town, Behala, Ballygunge. Any school in Kolkata can start with a free demo on its own routes, and setup takes about thirty minutes.
My child's school in Kolkata has no bus. What can I do?
Find a private van instead. Plenty of schools in Kolkata run no transport of their own, which is why private vans carry so many children here. You can search verified drivers by area and school, agree the fare directly with the driver, and still track the van live once your child is on board.
Do our drivers need training?
Very little. The driver app has three large buttons — start trip, mark students, end trip — and is built for someone who is not comfortable with smartphones. It runs in English and Hindi.
How much does school bus tracking cost in Kolkata?
SchoolTrack is charged per bus per month, and because tracking runs from the driver's own phone there is no upfront device cost for a school in Kolkata. Every school gets a free trial across its whole fleet before deciding, so the first month costs nothing.
How do I find a school van in Kolkata?
Search by your area and your child's school, and you see the van drivers who actually cover that part of Kolkata — with the monthly fare each one charges before you contact anybody. Ask the driver you want, and they accept or decline. You are not put in a queue or handed to a call centre.
How does school bus attendance work?
Each child has a QR code or an RFID card that the driver scans on boarding and again on getting off. The scan records the time and the stop, notifies the parent instantly, and builds a register the Kolkata school office can review or export.
Do you work with schools outside Kolkata as well?
Yes. SchoolTrack serves every district of West Bengal and major cities across India, so a school in Kolkata whose buses cross district lines is tracked the whole way rather than only inside one boundary.
Can the school office see all its buses in Kolkata at once?
Yes. The dashboard shows every bus in the fleet on one live map, with each bus's speed, route, driver and how many children are on board, plus alerts for delays, overspeeding and SOS.
Do schools in Kolkata need to install GPS devices in their buses?
No. SchoolTrack runs from the driver's own phone, so a school in Kolkata can begin tracking without buying GPS hardware or having anything wired in. Schools that already have GPS units fitted can keep using those instead.
We already use a GPS vendor. Can we switch?
Yes. Existing GPS units can be kept and read by SchoolTrack, or you can drop them and use the driver's phone. Either way the routes, stops and student list import from a spreadsheet rather than being retyped.
Our buses run two shifts a day. Is that supported?
Yes. A single bus can run a morning pickup and an afternoon drop with different children assigned to each, and attendance is recorded separately for both.
