To the Chairman and Members
of the
Walthamstow Education Committee
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I beg to present herewith a report upon the work of the School
Medical Department for the year 1938.
The more important matters for comment are the resignation
of Dr. A. R. Friel who has acted as your Aural Consultant Surgeon
for many years; the inception of the orthoptic scheme; the continued
progress of the milk in schools scheme and the extension of the work
of medical and dental inspection and treatment with regard to the
County Technical and Secondary schools.
Once more I wish to acknowledge the help received from your
Committee, the Director of Education, Head Teachers, School
Attendance Officers and, of course, the staff of the department.
I have the honour to be
Your obedient Servant,
A. T. W. POWELL,
School Medical Officer.
