In an exclusive interaction with EmiratesReporter.com, Dr. Sheela Menon, Principal of Ambassador School, Mankhool, Dubai, said., “The Ministry has announced the resumption of school transport services effective Monday, 20th April. This development brings significant relief to both schools and the parent community. With a majority of our school staff relying on school transport, the reinstatement of these services greatly streamlines daily operations and eliminates the need for alternative arrangements.
Additionally, parents who may have postponed sending their children for onsite learning due to the unavailability of school transport can now proceed with greater confidence and reassurance.
We extend our sincere appreciation to the concerned authorities for their prompt action and for ensuring that all necessary safety measures have been thoroughly implemented prior to resuming transport services.”
Parents are advised to reconfirm timings with their respective schools, as minor route or schedule adjustments may be in place to ensure smoother operations. The move brings much-needed relief to working parents while restoring routine and convenience for students, marking a confident return to normalcy in the UAE’s well-regulated school transport system.
