Remedial Unit for Retarded Children
This small unit has been in operation since September 1965.
The pupils who attend are of at least average intelligence, but for
a variety of reasons very backward educationally. A number,
although of secondary school age, are non-readers, and all require
individual attention and special coaching. There is a high degree
of co-operation between the work of the teachers at the unit and the
child's normal school.
