The activities of the clinic are not confined to the treatment of children.
Academic training of students for the diploma in psychology as well as the mental
health course at the London School of Economics is undertaken by a training unit
distinct from the ordinary service unit.
A course of practical instruction was also given in conjunction with the Institute
of Education, and the clinic participated in the training course for workers in the
National children's homes.
Since November, 1933, the clinic has carried out on behalf of the Council the
psychological examination of children in the place of detention.
Monthly open case conferences were held and discussions were organised for
special parties, notably for students from training colleges and other educational
centres. Lectures were given by the staff outside the clinic, and the director,
Dr. Moodie, affirms that from the attendances and discussions at these lectures it is
clear that a great interest in child guidance is growing up in this country, and that
there is already a widespread appreciation of the value and soundness of the work.
