  This comprehensive study delves into the realm of indoor positioning
technologies within the domain of Smart Education (SE). Focusing on typical
techniques and technologies in educational settings, the research emphasizes
the importance and potential services of localization in SE. Moreover, this
work explores the feasibility and limitations of these technologies, providing
a detailed account of their role in educational settings. The paper also
contains in an innovative Proof of Concept (PoC), demonstrating an automatic
attendance control (AAC) system that integrates 5G and WiFi technologies. This
PoC effectively showcases the possibilities and effectiveness of location-based
services in educational surroundings even with a limited budget, setting the
stage for optimizing teaching time, enhancing the quality of education.
