DENTAL REPORT
To the Chairman and Members of the Education Committee.
I have the honour to present the Dental Report for the year
1943.
All the elementary schools were inspected during the year, and
treatment was completed, with the exception of 113 cases awaiting
appointments. These were treated in January, 1944.
The Girls' Secondary School was inspected and treated, but
not the Boys' Secondary School, or the Junior Technical School.
In April the Kent Education Committee reverted to previous
arrangements, and send their own Dental Surgeon to treat the
Secondary Schools at the Beckenham Clinic each Wednesday and
at the West Wickham Clinic when convenient. This followed a
decision of the Beckenham Education Committee to discontinue
the inspection and treatment of the Secondary Schools owing to the
impossibility of dealing with them, without an increase in Staff.
