the school is not bad at all. there are a few minor flaws like any school may have. robious is all about care in action but they do not really do anything about bullying which is something we should be looking out for. the school itself has good quality on the inside and out. a lot of amazing teachers but some are bad :(, but i suppose we all have our preferences. overall, robious is a wonderful school to attend for education.
