Worple Road Schools show somewhat similar figures. With
the single exception of the age 9 group of girls, each age of both
boys and girls shows an average weight well below that of the
district.
Heights (girls) are the same as the Blue Schools, above the
average at 5, 6 and 8, below at the other ages.
Heights (boys) above the average at all ages.
These schools serve adjacent areas in Isleworth, and number
amongst their scholars some of the poorest in the district.
The Blue Schools in particular are situated in the midst of a
congested low lying area near the river, where the housing conditions
are bad, and there are few open spaces.
The school buildings are also old and leave room for much
improvement.
Heston School.—This is the only other school which gives
consistent figures. The Boys show a steady figure just above the
district average for both height and weight at all ages, except at
age 12 where the height is slightly below.
The Girls (Heston) show variable figures, as indeed do all the
other schools in the district.
