I was told by my kids school authorities that the child who was picked first will be dropped last .They said this is the norm in all schools.Can anyone explain whether this is correct?

This is pure logic and the s Isn't this normal on all bus routes, if you are first one way - you will necessarily be last going the other way .

to hi2everybody

what if for example: if you have a kid, the school is located in abu hamour, then you live in al hilal area, then other kids live in mansoura and bin mahmoud.

1. do you want your kid to pick up first then they will go to al mansoura and bin mahmoud then back to school?

2.or you want first the school bus to pick up the kid in bin mahmoud then the kid in al mansoura and last is your kid then to school.

if you choose number 1, since you mention that 1st pick up should be 1st drop off, do you want your kid to go to al mansoura and bin mahmoud then to school during pick up

or

its better to pick up your kid last but drop off first.

That is right. the first student who pick up will be the last one to drop. student live in different places of doha. the first student to pick up usually the farthest from the school, school buses start from the farthest area during pick up while during drop off, the bus start to the area nearest to the school.

No it is totally wrong,it is picked first drop off first otherwise the specific kids will spend more time in the bus,if they are saying like this ask them to pick up last & drop off first, just listen what will be their answer !! sometimes drivers or the school administration is doing that so they can facilitate their staff as they are also using the same buses to staffs,try following the bus one day & you will know what is milk & what is water ?
