PREFACE.
To the Chairman and Members of the Education Committee.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the honour of presenting to you my second Report
upon the School Medical Service in the Borough of Hornsey.
Throughout the year 1922 good work has been done in safeguarding
the health of children of school age; and, although we
have undertaken no additional lines of treatment and have
embarked on no new schemes, we have made the most of the
organisation at our disposal.
This Report follows closely on the lines desired by the Board
of Education; but, since a full report on our administration was
given last year, it has been thought unnecessary to repeat much
of the information then given.
I should like to take this opportunity of thanking the
Education Secretary and the members of his Staff for the help
that they have given me during the past twelve months; and to
express my appreciation of the work of the Assistant School
Medical Officer (Dr. J. R. Prior) and of those other Doctors
who have helped with the clinical side of the work. To the
School Teachers and to the School Nurses I should like also to
express my thanks for their hearty co-operation.
I am,
Your obedient Servant,
A. T. NANKIVELL.
January, 1923.
