13.—CO-OPERATION WITH TEACHERS.
I have pleasure in repeating the gratitude the School
Medical Service owes to the Teachers of schools in this Borough
for the keen interest they take in its work, and for a spirit of
cordiality which enables the work to be carried on with greater
efficiency. They assist us at the Routine Inspections and reInspections,
watch for children who appear to require medical
attention, and we are thus able to cover much more ground than
if we had to do this work by ourselves.
We are frequently asking for returns and information
which must take up much of their time, and this form of help
is always given us ungrudgingly. We furnish all Head Teachers
with lists of children found at the inspections mentioned above
to be suffering from some defect, together with the kind of
treatment advised.

Association, but it is found that many parents seem to appreciate
