Parent Rating Average
Robert Down is an excellent school. The children in my son’s class are kind, considerate and love to learn. The teachers have been amazing and supportive. Having gone to private school in the area, this public school is the closest you will get to private school. My child is excelling in every way. If there was one thing I’d change it would be the teacher to student ratio but the staff, principal and parent community are stellar.
