Report on Schools and Hostels for Maladjusted Children

The Royal Medico-Psychological Association Child Psychiatry Section

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  29 January 2018

Extract

In 1963 the Child Psychiatry Section of the R.M.P.A. set up a small committee to study problems concerned with the schools for maladjusted children. The role of the psychiatrist in the ascertainment and subsequent placement of such children varies between one part of the country and another so that there was general uncertainty about the respective roles of the educational and psychiatric services in dealing with maladjusted children.
