You got the idea. Problem is how you implement it!

Let take a simplest approach:

  1. Get the coordinate of the school from Google Map
  2. The GPS device constantly check distance between the it and the above coordinate.
  3. If the distance is acceptable, let schedule to send SMS by about 15 minutes, by calling an API to send SMS (for example twillio)
  4. If the distance is larger than allowed, immediately send an SMS to alert.

Oh, as this is DEV community, I've assumed you're a programmer asking for technical instruction, sorry.

As a user, you can either find and buy a pre-existing parental-control solution that has your desired feature, or hire a programmer to write you one.
