How do class 1 children get to Irisflorets in Gachibowli? School van, private van, or parents?

Our daughter is in UKG at a preschool near home and we're shortlisting for class 1 next June. Irisflorets keeps coming up because it's small and it's close. Oddly, I like that it stops at class 3. One less big decision now, a bigger one later, and I've made my peace with that. What I can't work out from outside is the commute. Does the school run its own transport, or do most parents book private vans or drop the kids themselves? Her current van works only because the driver has the same three stops every day.

    We're looking at it for nursery for our daughter, so I've only seen it from the road. Passed by once at dispersal time and saw both vans and parents waiting outside, which doesn't tell you much. The office should know which vans the regular families use. Worth asking when you visit.

      Whichever way it goes, if you end up with a private van, meet the driver and ride the route once before you commit. Our son was on private vans for most of his school years. The good ones had a fixed route and a helper who walked the small children to the door. In the one bad year, the driver kept adding children and the route grew by half an hour by December. Ask how many children are on it now and how many seats it has.
