As in previous years, I wish to acknowledge the excellent
co-operation that exists between head teachers, parents,
School medical officers and health visitors and to refer to
the work of the education welfare officers whose reports on
families and individual children are instrumental in bringing
to our notice many departures from health as early as possible.
I wish to record the excellent team work of all
members of the staff on which the success of the School
Health Service so largely depends and I wish, also, to express
my appreciation of the help which I have received during
the year from the Chairman and Members of the Committee,
from Miss Smith, the Senior Clerk, from the County
Medical Officer and his staff and from the Borough Education
Officers and his Department.
I am, Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
JOHN LANDON,
Medical Officer of Health.
