As in the previous year several visits were made to the Neurosurgical
Ward at Oldchurch Hospital where the work of the teacher
is particularly exacting and it was possible to advise about equipment
which would make the children more comfortable and better able
to use her services.
Children receiving home tuition were discussed regularly with
their tutors but this year all had been known to the psychologist
before home tuition was commenced so that no new assessments
were required.
The total of 54 interviews with people other than children, their
parents or their teachers, is higher than previously and includes
students of various types who have visited the Clinic to learn about
Child Guidance and the School Psychological Service, talks to groups
of interested people, e.g. The Townswomen's Guild, Inner Wheel,
etc. and discussions about general matters concerning handicapped
and disturbed children with Special Medical Officers, Her Majesty's
Inspectors, staff at Oldchurch Hospital and various other people.
