If you write, [ 帰りは迎えに行きます。 ] (Kaeri wa mukae ni ikimasu), this means that you will be picking your child up from school, and the school will understand that your child will not be riding the bus. If you wish to be even more clear, you may write, [ 帰りは迎えに行きます。バスには乗りません。 ] (Kaeri wa mukae ni ikimasu. Basu ni wa norimasen), or "I will be picking my child up from school. He/She will not be on the bus."
