TO THE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS
of the
LEYTON EDUCATION COMMITTEE.
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I beg to present the Eighth Annual Report on the work of
the School Medical Service in Leyton under the Education
(Administrative Provisions) Act of 1907.
In the Schools the medical inspection of "Entrants" and
"Leavers" has been carried out, but with the consent of the
Board of Education the examination of an intermediate group,
consisting of 8 year old children, has been deferred for the
duration of the war.
The School Clinics at the Town Hall have dealt with children
suffering from minor ailments, defective vision and dental defects,
and have been maintained in full activity; the inspection clinic has
also been held each morning.
My best thanks are due to the members and officials of the
Education Committee for the assistance which they have rendered
me on many occasions.
I am,
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
ALFRED BALL.
