(c) Open-Air Classrooms in Public Elementary Schools.
None of the classrooms in the schools of the Borough have
been constructed on the open-air principle.

There are unfortunately no open-air schools in the Borough.
(See also 17, page 100.)
(e) Residential Open-Air Schools.
There are no such schools under the direct control of the
Local Education Authority; the Committee, however, have continued
to send a certain number of children, for whom such
treatment would be beneficial, to the Ogilvie School of Recovery
at Clacton-on-Sea.
Arrangements have also been made for the admission of
children to the Russell Cotes School of Recovery at Parkestone,
and to the Institutions of the Invalid Children's Aid Association.
The accompanying table gives particulars in connection with these
children.
In addition, the Invalid Children's Aid Association have
rendered assistance in 112 cases, financial responsibility for which
was not undertaken by the Local Education Authority. (See also
