Miss Gubb reports on the Dental Inspection and Treatment
of the children at the Special School as follows :—
All physical and mental defectives were inspected during
the year. All children requiring treatment were drafted to the
Clinic and treated or referred to the Dental Departments of various
London Hospitals where they were already attending for
general treatment—in some cases this being the most convenient
way for the cripple children to receive dental treatment on account
of their various disabilities.
Two voluntary After-Care Committees sit to consider the
welfare of children who have recently left these schools.
The following reports have been received regarding "leavers"
(luring the past year.
