The problems of future careers and occupations of the children
approaching school leaving age continue to be discussed with the
parents. Many cases after leaving school are still supervised
for some time to ensure they have become firmly established in a
suitable occupation Older cases still requiring supervision are
referred to an adult medical clinic or in some cases their family
doctor.

I am indebted to Dr, P.P.M, Clarke, the visiting Aural
Surgeon, for the following report:-
