MISCELLANEOUS.
Under this heading have to be grouped the medical examinations
made of candidates prior to their appointment on the teaching
staff by the Education Committee and of the ever-increasing
number of persons added to the Council's technical and clerical
staff and manual workers. All of these examinations are carried
out by the school medical staff, assisted by school nurses when
necessary. During the year 71 teachers and 132 other candidates
were medically examined previous to appointment.
