academic program he said Unfortun ately their needs have not been the particular responsibility of any specific department or volun tary agency in the past Generally speaking the Depart ment of Health cares for children at institutionasuch as Orillia but takes no responsibility for child ren still in the home The De partment of Education provides schools for normal clildrcn and for those with an 1Q

quite differ ent matter from that of the nor mal child said Dr Griffin The school for normal children takes it for granted that they will learn those essential aptitudcs such as buttoning ot clothing at home and provides an essentially academic curriculum The mentally retarded child however needs to be carefully taught the very things normal child piclrs up This is frequent ly task beyond

envin onments Eventhose who must be permanently institutionalised should benefitfrom the earlier training by being happier and more easily managed he said There is growing up on the community level
