The projected establishment for this Child Guidance Clinic is :
1 full time (or 11 sessions) Psychiatrist.
1 Child Psychotherapist.
3 Psychologists.
3 Psychiatric Social Workers.
3 Clerks.
At least six psychiatric sessions are necessary to get abreast
of the work arising in the schools in the Ealing area ; if the whole
of Area 7 (i.e., Ealing and Acton) is to be covered, eleven sessions
will be required. Although 1952 was a smooth running year in
which there were no changes in clerical staff, we were still unable
to deal with as many cases as were referred to us. The number
referred by the Educational Psychologists was kept down to the
lowest possible figure to give us an opportunity to catch up with
arrears but it was still impossible to make more than a slight
reduction in the waiting list.
