bf2064d5-82b0-4a03-b02f-fa07875332cd | Patrick's Open-Air School (Residential), Hayling Island 1 92 (b) Mentally defective children are dealt with at Faircross Special School and, in certain cases, in residential schools, and children whose misfortune it is not to be able to receive benefit from instruction in a special school or class under Section 56 of the Education Act, 1921, are notified to the County Council. After notifying these children to the County, we do not officially take any further action, but close co-operation is maintained with the County and any help which we are able to give informally is placed at the disposal of the County. The County Council co-operate with a voluntary organisation in the care of these defective children, and, whenever possible, we, also, have co-operated with this organisation. (c) At the end of 1933, there were 240 places in Faircross Special School. |
4705d294-d1a8-4406-8181-d51498042f1b | One hundred were in the Open-Air Section for delicate children, 40 in the Physically Defective Section, and 100 in the Mentally Defective Section. I am, however, to advise you that subsequently, after discussions with the Board of Education, certain adjustments have been carried out. It seems to me that the time is ripe for general discussions on a national basis about the future of these special schools. The idea of keeping delicate children at open-air schools until the age of sixteen years was undertaken, I believe, in the hope that, although the children have had an interrupted school life, they might reasonably, by that time, attain approximately the standard of an ordinary child of fourteen years. This idea is very good and works out in practice, but, if ever any similar idea was entertained with regard to mentally defective children, I can only say from my experience that it is the exceptions which work out in practice. |
f902d443-3fbc-46a8-8247-53d73bae1976 | In practice it is becoming less and less common to send mentally defective children into special schools unless they are at least two-and-a-half to three years retarded at the age of ten years, or retarded pro rata at any other age, and I find that such children have completed their mental expansion at quite an early age and that, although they may add such experience as they are able to understand to their mental equipment, they do not develop mentally much after ten to twelve years of age. I sometimes doubt whether this form of education has realised the expectation of those who embarked on it. |
0f36ef3a-1430-4996-9edb-e95eb2d4fe49 | The following table gives information in respect of medical inspection at the Faircross Special School during the year 1933:— Number of inspection sessions 36 Number of children inspected:— (a) Routines 79 (b) Specials 53 (c) Re-examinations 347 479 93 Number of defects referred:— (a) For treatment 39 (b) For observation 27 66 Number of defects found treated 22 Number of parents present at inspections 290 I am indebted to Mr. Compton, the Director of Education, who has very kindly called my attention to the Ninth Annual Report of the Juvenile Employment SubCommittee—for the year ended July 31st, 1933. This Report, inter alia, deals with after-care in connection with the Faircross Special School, and points out that this work is fortunately diminishing. This Report also gives details of interesting cases, indicating the pursuits in which the children are now employed. |
0f72509d-23b4-42f8-976b-297f7c2c984e | (14) FULL-TIME COURSES OF HIGHER EDUCATION FOR BLIND, DEAF, DEFECTIVE AND EPILEPTIC STUDENTS. The Local Education Authority do not maintain any courses of training for Blind, Deaf. Defective and Epileptic students. (15) NURSERY SCHOOLS. Up to the present the Barking Authority have not established Nursery schools in the area under their control. (16) SECONDARY SCHOOLS AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION. The Barking Education Authority is not empowered to provide secondary education for its scholars, but children for whom this type of education is demanded do attend the Barking Abbey School, situated on the boundary of the Borough. This school is under the Essex County Council, and medical inspection and treatment of children attending it is in the hands of that Council. (17) PARENTS' PAYMENTS. |
09d32043-7c00-4fcf-a125-5cfdbfba5873 | There has been no change during the year in the arrangements for recovering the cost of treatment from parents of children attending Public Elementary Schools. These arrangements are, briefly, as follows:— Dental Treatment.—There is a nominal charge for treatment of sixpence per patient. Dentures, regulation plates, etc., are supplied at cost price, or at reduced cost or free of charge in certain necessitous cases. No charge is made for a Dental X-ray examination. 94 Diphtheria Immunisation, Treatment of Minor Ailments, X-ray Treatment of Ringworm, and Ultra-violet Light Treatment.—No charge is made for these forms of treatment. Milk in School.—One-third of a pint of milk is supplied daily to children attending school on payment of one penny per day. Where the Medical Officer considers milk is desirable on medical grounds no charge is made in necessitous cases. |
48f078cd-2694-424b-8238-d0a39ce08b1d | Ophthalmic Service.-—Eye testing and the prescription of glasses is carried out free of charge in all cases. Lenses, mounted in white metal ("Clinic") frames, complete with case, are supplied at a maximum charge of 2s. 1d., irrespective of the cost to the Authority, or free of charge in certain necessitous cases. Where the parent selects other than "Clinic" frames, the actual cost price is charged. Repairs to "Clinic" spectacles are carried out at cost (maximum charge 2s. 1d.), or free of charge in certain necessitous cases. Repairs to other than "Clinic" spectacles are charged at cost price. Arrangements are made with the Optician for the acceptance of the vouchers of the Hospital Savings Association towards the cost of spectacles. Orthopadic Treatment.—No charge is made for treatment at the Authority's Orthopaedic Clinic. |
2f3c2982-fbf0-42a1-94e2-df492bbfc268 | Surgical Instruments are supplied at cost price, or at reduced cost or free of charge in certain necessitous cases. Necessitous cases are admitted to Orthopaedic Hospitals free of charge ; other cases are dealt with on their merits. No charge is made for an X-ray examination or for a clinical photograph. Arrangements are made whereby the vouchers of the Hospital Savings Association are accepted towards the cost of surgical instruments and hospital treatment. Tonsils and Adenoids.—A nominal fee of 5s. is charged in respect of an operation for the removal of tonsils and/or adenoids. In certain necessitous cases the treatment is provided free of charge. A voucher of the Hospital Savings Association is accepted in lieu of the fee of 5s. (18) HEALTH EDUCATION. |
cbb4d918-cac1-4def-9a59-3218b9296245 | I am asked by the Board of Education to give an account of the relation of the School Medical Service to any health teaching specially designed for the school children of the area, and I am to report that although we have been unable to do anything on the lines we would wish, this matter has not been lost sight of. With the extensions that are going on as the result of the increase in the population of Barking, it has been difficult enough to keep up with the ordinary work, but we hope that when we have a stable population, we will undertake work in this important direction. My own personal opinion is that a "health bias" in the school curriculum is more important than a course of hygiene, and that health and habits can be inculcated quite apart from lessons on physiology and kindred sciences. 95 (19) SPECIAL INQUIRIES. |
21403445-3757-4d9f-adb9-3ecff65397ff | No special inquiries have been initiated by the School Medical Staff during 1933, but we were very pleased to be of help to the National Institute of Industrial Psychology, who, with the permission of the Authority, carried out a series of experiments at one of the Infants' Schools on the effect of diet upon the mental and physical growth of children. Thirty children were provided with special breakfasts at school, and their response compared with thirty other children receiving ordinary breakfasts at home. The Authority undertook provision of these meals. (20) MISCELLANEOUS. (a) Examination of Teachers.—During the year, seventy-eight medical examinations were carried out of applicants for teaching posts under the Local Education Authority. (b) Part-time employment of school-children.—Milk and newspaper deliveries, general errands, etc., are the usual forms of employment of children. |
feaacb8a-656b-47ca-b461-1907caf7c226 | In accordance with the bye-laws of the Education Authority, 16 applicants of school age submitted themselves for examination prior to employment, of which number it was necessary to refuse one applicant on medical grounds. 96 SERVICES PROVIDED FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN. Boots Free boots are provided in certain necessitous cases. Camps Week-end camps are held every week-end during the summer months, and in addition two holiday camps, each of a fortnight's duration, are held during the summer holidays. Cleansing Special soap is issued from the Minor Ailments Clinics and special combs are loaned, on payment of a deposit. In certain cases, arrangements are made for the children to be cleansed at the Clinic by the School Nurses. Dental Treatment Dental treatment—including orthodontic treatment—is carried out daily at the Corporation's Dental Clinic, East Street. Dinners Free dinners are provided for children attending school, where the family income is below a certain scale. |
9747257d-dc09-4fc4-ae12-ee208f8fa499 | Diphtheria Immunisation Immunisation against Diphtheria is carried out at the Central Clinic. No charge is made for this treatment. Medical Inspection Arrangements are made for each child to be medically examined at school three times during the period of school life, and at such other times as the medical officer considers necessary. Milk One-third of a pint of milk is supplied daily to children attending school on payment of 1d. per day. Where the family income is below a certain scale and where the medical officer considers milk desirable on medical grounds, no charge is made. Minor Ailments Children suffering from minor ailments are treated daily at the Corporation's Central Clinic, and at the St. Alban's Clinic. Ophthalmic Service A Refraction Clinic is held at the Central Clinic, and the scheme includes the provision of spectacles at a very low charge, and, in some cases, where the family income is below a certain scale, at no charge. |
0559b63c-a910-4107-966d-73cc75401417 | 97 Orthopedic Treatment Orthopaedic treatment—including the provision of splints and any necessary hospital treatment—is provided through the Orthopaedic Clinic, Faircross Special School. Special School The Faircross Special School is divided into three sections— a Physically Defective Section, a Mentally Defective Section and a Section for Delicate Children. When considered desirable, the children are conveyed to and from school by motor ambulance. Tonsils and Adenoids Surgical treatment for tonsils and adenoids is carried out at two local hospitals under an agreement with the Corporation. A small charge is made to the parents, except in certain necessitous cases, when no charge is made.

To the Medical Officer of Health, June, 1934. Borough of Barking. Sir, I have the honour to present the report of the School Dental Service for the year ended December 31st, 1933. It has not been possible to inspect and treat the school population during the year under review. |
ec2e90a4-6422-40dd-bf4c-5dbe299e4b47 | The most formidable hindrances to more frequent routine inspection and treatment are:— (1) The large number of patients requiring more than average treatment; (2) The increased number of casual patients who present a condition, the treatment for which is the immediate extraction of teeth under nitrous oxide anaesthesia. The former does not apply in any calculable degree to the pupils of the older schools of Barking, but is represented mainly by newcomers to the recently erected schools, especially new senior pupils who arrive with one or two years to go before reaching the school leaving age. These pupils, being impressed by the necessity of leaving school with sound teeth, bring for attention the accumulation of neglect, and six to nine fillings involving at least a corresponding number of visits is not infrequent. Against the casual, nothing can be said while a system exists which permits an unwilling parent to refuse conservative treatment for the child and to re-visit the Clinic at a later period with the child as a casual patient needing extractions. |
c2115e6b-687e-400b-98c5-31dec94eb9f0 | It should not be considered harsh nor unreasonable if a rule be introduced to the effect that refusal of treatment after inspection and advice should mean refusal for the year, and that treatment required as the result of such refusal be obtained from sources other than the Clinic. Preventive or prophylactic treatment is of the greatest benefit both to the patient and the operator, and should form a definite part of any campaign concerned with dental hygiene. Unfortunately, with the staff at its present strength, practical chairside work absorbs the whole of the professional service to the exclusion of lectures to children approaching school leaving age, especially girls, women's organisations, and any undertaking, the members of which can be approached on the subject of children's welfare. The dissemination of simple knowledge and its practical adoption would prove far more economic than the time spent in the surgery by the operator engaged in the expensive correction of dental errors. |
7450ca23-d435-42bf-b270-7d10941d403b | I cannot speak too highly of the energetic co-operation of the operative and nursing staff at the Clinic, the interest and kindly assistance of the Heads of schools, and the helpful consideration of the Health Visitors during the year, and I would like to record my appreciation of their unstinted service. 101 Graph " A " This graph is submitted not only to show the dramatic rise in annual attendances at the Dental Clinic from 2,478 to 9,824 in a period of six years and an equally dramatic rise in the number of extractions, but to show that these totals have depressed a desired progressive rise of conservative treatment, which remains almost constant to an average of 1,600 fillings per annum. |
066b45cc-deb7-4410-b0b8-615180054de0 | The operative staff was increased in April, 1931, to cope with the rapidly growing school population of about that time, but unfortunately the time of the staff is occupied mainly in rendering the school population dentally fit by extractions than by the ideal of conservation, the achievement of which calls for further operative assistance. 102 Graph "B" The increase in administration of anaesthetics must be expected to correspond to the increased number of extractions. The growth of the casual from one hundred attendances in 1927, to 1,219 attendances in 1933, fully establishes the comments made earlier in this report. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient Servant, W. H. FOY, l.d.s., r.c.s (eng ), Public Dental Officer. 103 SCHOOL MEDICAL SERVICE. Statistical Tables—Public Elementary Schools.

dc090b0f-54c7-4c0b-b95c-e3cbc3e1c508 | — 1 Totals 23 6 7 3 39 Points of note in the preceding table are the large numbers of deaths occurring in the first four weeks of life and the frequency with which prematurity is the cause of death especially in the first four days of life. A closer survey of the data available shows the frequent association of marasmus and congenital debility with prematurity. It will be seen that there are seventy-one deaths under the age of one year, of which no less than thirty-nine were four weeks of age or under, and that prematurity is given as the causc of death for no less than twelve babies who died within the first four weeks of life. During the remaining eleven months of life it will be seen that bronchitis and pneumonia account for nearly half the deaths and I am persuaded that some of these deaths are due to environment. We have noted too that the second and third years of life have a considerable mortality due to bronchitis and pneumonia which are frequently complications of measles. |
d2ee9e15-bd99-478c-9fa8-2f87ea9583a5 | There can be no doubt that measles is taking the place of scarlet fever as a killing disease and I hope that measles will be regarded more and more as a serious disease requiring hospital treatment. 17 I am glad to report that the incidence of gastro-enteritis (summer diarrhoea) was much less than during the preceding year. There were six such deaths, under the age of two years, during 1934 as compared with seventeen during the previous year. The following table shows the comparative figures of infant mortality and neo-natal mortality for the past eight years Infantile and Neo-Natal Mortality and Rates for the years 1927-1934 :— Year. |

a437ebc0-0f0f-4839-9414-ca007b5cf3b8 | The net number of births registered in 1934 was 1,252, affording an annual birth rate of 17.4 per 1,000 population, compared with 17.4 in 1933, 18.3 in 1932, 18.3 in 1931, 17.8 in 1930, 18.7 in 1929 and 19.7 in 1928. Of all births, 26 were illegitimate, giving a percentage of 2.08 of the total births. Notification of Births Acts, 1907-1915.—During 1934 there were 1,228 live births notified, excluding 38 cases transferred from the district. In addition, notifications of still-births belonging to the district totalled 48. Thirty-one live births and 6 still-births were not notified, and these cases are not included in the totals of notified births given above. 18 7. SOCIAL CONDITIONS. |
5ef2e627-d1ba-4291-9d9f-ef563717623f | (a) Industries.—Some of the chief industries carried on in the area are as follows :— The production of electricity, gas, benzole, naphtha and zinc oxide. The manufacture of asbestos goods, joinery, ice-cream, letter files, mineral waters, marine lights, disinfectants, printing ink, sausage skins, cabinets and furniture, nautical instruments, paint, iron goods, tin boxes, lifebelts, rubber goods, wireless equipment and batteries, matches, soap, chemical manure, wood-paving and concrete paving. The storage of petrol, oil, fuel and timber. Electrical welding, structural engineering and saw-milling. The population of Barking is almost entirely industrial. Barking is becoming a dormitory. (b) Unemployment.—The following table is compiled from information kindly supplied by the Manager of the Ministry of Labour Employment Exchange, Barking :— Copy of comparative statement of local unemployed by industries, as at December, 1933 and December, 1934 :— Men. |

I look forward to the time when the nutrition of people who are unemployed and their dependants will be completely co-ordinated, when the amount of relief will be adequate and be dispensed by one authority only and when it will be only necessary for your special services to call the attention of that authority to any special circumstances for a sufficient financial adjustment to be made. |
ed8e9255-2a77-41cf-8820-235941d0053c | (c) Housing.—With particular reference to environment the considerable programme you have in housing is a measure towards overcoming your housing problem, but you have before you sufficient evidence that hundreds of houses are required in Barking to overcome the evil of overcrowding. I do most sincerely hope that the problem will not be regarded only from its local aspcct. Only a limited number of people can live in Barking and having regard to the fact that Barking is already a dormitory it seems to me to be unwise to overcrowd the area as a whole when there must be hundreds of people who could travel equally well to the City and elsewhere and live other than in Barking itself. (d) Travelling Facilities.—Arising out of the question of the way in which your industrial population travel, I have repeatedly said that the conditions under which these poor people travel calls for adverse comment. These people travel cheek by jowl in the fetid atmosphere of crowded trains. These conditions are deplorable. |
2b4a022a-296b-476c-b81b-d1ea63016469 | The irregularity of the bus services has been the subject of comment. On this, however, I have not sufficient evidence, but certainly to see a large crowd of people, tired after a day's work, waiting in long queues, in inclement weather, on uncovered pavements is a sight which cannot commend itself to one who is interested in public health. (e) Malnutrition.—With reference to malnutrition our statistics only deal with school-children and are as follows :— Of 4,117 children examined by routine at school medical inspection, 74 were found to be suffering from malnutrition ; of these, ten were referred for treatment and 64 for observation. In addition, 21 children were specially examined from the standpoint of malnutrition; of these, three were referred for treatment and 18 for observation. 21 SECTION B. GENERAL PROVISION OF HEALTH SERVICES FOR THE AREA. 1. GENERAL HEALTH SERVICES. |
0d1ceee5-a680-4c77-ae25-4fb97841e930 | (a) Laboratory Facilities.—The necessary laboratory work of the district is carried out by arrangement with the Essex County Council at the Counties' Public Health Laboratories, situated in Queen Victoria Street, London, E.C.4. Particulars of the number of specimens submitted for examination are supplied by the following table:— Specimen. r examined. Diphtheria 3,905 Sputa 257 Typhoid 33 Ringworm 1 Miscellaneous 36 Total 4,232 In addition there were 41 biological examinations for virulence. (b) Ambulance Facilities.—There have been no definite changes in the ambulances during the year 1934. The usual reciprocal argeements with neighbouring authorities have been maintained. (c) Clinics and Treatment Centres.—The table on pages 23-24 shows the various out-patient departments under the control of the Local Authority. |
e7b84528-ab74-4b5c-bb71-6b1fbc29916a | (d) Hospitals (Public and Voluntary).—There have been no material changes since last year, but for reference the table presented last year is submitted for this year also. Last year I directed your attention to the question of financial assistance to voluntary hospitals and I beg to submit for your favourable consideration my observations of 1933 :— "In an important town like Barking, with a large industrial population, the question of your indebtedness to the local hospitals is bound to arise very forcibly. It seems to me unsatisfactory to deal with this question piecemeal. 22 I would recommend that a definite total sum be set apart each year—say £250—and that this be distributed in proportion to the work done. |
e5820116-ebb3-4fdd-ba0b-ba2b68630cc5 | I would recommend that no notice be taken whatsoever of Barking patients attending for ordinary out-patient treatment, but that hospitals who apply for a donation be invited to supply, not necessarily exact, but approximate, details of the number of in-patients treated, of the number of bed-days these patients have been in hospital, and of the number of out-patients in whose case a report has been sent from the consultant to the general practitioner attending the patient. I believe this information could be abstracted, if absolute accuracy were not insisted upon, in a few minutes from the records of any hospital. " 2. MATERNITY AND CHILD WELFARE SERVICES. The work in connection with Maternity and Child Welfare is carried on under powers given in the following Acts :— Notification of Births Act, 1907. Notification of Births (Extension) Act, 1915. Maternity and Child Welfare Act, 1918. |
cb4d6ab2-b09f-4c46-bd4d-72cc2ddbd757 | Part 1 of the Children Act, 1908, as amended by Part V of the Children and Young Persons Act, 1932. Four Health Visitors are also School Nurses. With the object of obtaining continuity of service every endeavour is made to see that Doctors and such Health Visitors who are School Nurses, who attend at certain clinics, continue the supervision of children under their charge when they become of school age. During 1934 the Central Clinic was opened, and in the new building the Clinics, formerly held in the East Street Centre, run smoothly and are growing in size. The other Maternity and Child Welfare Clinics are held at the Alexandra, Shaftesbury and Greatfields (Infant Welfare only) Centres. During the year the setting up of a new centre in the north-eastern part of the Borough has been under consideration and next year I shall be reporting that Infant Welfare and Ante-Natal Clinics are being held at the Methodist Church, Porters Avenue. |
705ca419-478e-4a58-97b2-835806bfde0f | I look forward to the time when clinic premises will be erected in this northern area similar to those being built in the southern section of the Becontree Estate. In connection with the Welfare Clinics, the help given by the ladies of the Barking Infant Welfare Society is much appreciated and gratefully acknowledged. 23—24 CLINIC AND TREATMENT CENTRES Name and Situation When Held Nature of Accommodation By Whom Provided 1.
