Hi,
I would like to know if Iqama for the child mandatory for an admission into schools in Riyadh. I am an Indian expat working in Riyadh and would like to get my kid enrolled on a visit visa.
Cheers!
Is Iqama mandatory for schooling in Riyadh?

You need to get an Iqama. Schools may accept temporary admission while Iqama is in process but not on a visit visa generally - at least not the good ones.
