Roberton Primary School is a small rural school serving an extensive, self-contained rural community south west of Hawick, in the valley of the Borthwick Water.

 The school itself was built in the early nineteenth century and is presently the oldest school in operation in the Scottish Borders area.

 The internal layout of the school takes the form of one large open plan classroom with adjoining kitchen.  The Headteacher and school assistant presently share an office.

 The playground has large sized tarmac and grass areas and is safely contained by perimeter walls.   The school has just completed an extensive garden area which can also be used as an outdoor classroom and a recreation area for staff and pupils.

 As Roberton is a rural school most children are from agricultural backgrounds, however, within the catchment area is the Beshara Institute of Esoteric Education and parents attending courses enrol their children at Roberton.

 In August 2008 Roberton Primary School was officially linked as a satellite to Drumlanrig St Cuthbert’s Primary School, in Hawick. The pupils go to Drumlanrig for PE and playground interaction once a week.

In March 2009 the web site was launched.
