Dubai: Dubai Police marked the return of in-person learning with a series of field events aimed at welcoming students and fostering national pride. Through the “School Security” initiative, officers distributed UAE flags to students across schools, reinforcing a sense of belonging and identity from the first day of classes.

The initiative created a lively and engaging atmosphere, bringing smiles to students and parents while leaving a positive first impression of the school environment.

Authorities also implemented comprehensive traffic management plans around schools to ensure smooth flow and student safety. Efforts were carried out in coordination with the General Department of Traffic, the General Department of Operations, and police stations across the emirate, with patrols deployed to regulate movement during peak drop-off and pick-up hours.
