Original Toronto Star caption: Back to basics: the curriculum stresses English, history, science, match, geography, French and physical education. Headmaster Scott Bowman feels it's a tragedy that some first-year university students don't know how to write an essay. At Robert Land they learn that skill in Grade 6.
