The UAE Ministry of Education announced the resumption of in-person learning on April 20, despite the postponement of school bus services. This decision comes as educational institutions have completed necessary preparations, including staff training and safety protocols. Schools will provide flexibility regarding attendance issues for families facing transportation challenges, reviewing cases on an individual basis. Public schools will not charge transport fees during this period, while private schools will follow local education authority regulations regarding fees. Updates on the status of school bus services will be communicated weekly through official channels to ensure families are informed. The ministry reassured that all schools are safe for students as they return to classrooms.
