ROBOTS are being flown in from Spain to teach international students in Abu Dhabi.
Humanoid, flying and pet robots are all part of the staff at Merryland International School in Musaffah.
In total there are 50 robots teaching everything from maths and medicine to engineering and dance.
And with most of the models coming from Spain, Merryland headteacher Vijoy Varkey thinks it is just a matter before Spain’s own classrooms are run by robots.
Judging by the insensitivity shown to young students and rigidity of curricula in some Spanish classrooms, they already are.
