Bus Routes & Schedules

Our bus routes cover a wide range of areas to serve the needs of our students and their families.

Safety Measures

At Emirates American School, the safety of our students is paramount. Our transportation service complies with stringent safety regulations and employs several measures to ensure a secure travel experience for all students.

Trained Bus Attendants

Each bus is staffed with trained attendants who oversee the safety and well-being of students during their journey. These attendants are skilled in managing children and are trained in first aid and emergency protocols. They are not only vigilant but also compassionate, ensuring that every child feels safe and comfortable.

Fingerprint-Enabled Doors

To further enhance security, our buses are equipped with fingerprint-enabled doors, ensuring that only authorized individuals can access the buses.

Regular Municipality Inspections

Our buses undergo regular inspections by the municipality to ensure they meet all required standards. This includes checks on mechanical health, cleanliness, and compliance with safety regulations. This ensures that our fleet is always in top condition and compliant with the latest safety requirements.

The entry and exit gates at the school are always manned by security personnel. This controlled access minimizes the risk of unauthorized entry and ensures timely monitoring of student movement.
