In 1909 a provisional school medical service was introduced at some teacher training institutions; a legal regulation for federal secondary schools (amended in 1948 and 1960) was introduced in 1923, for primary schools and the lower levels of secondary schools in1955. %%language [Back to the Austrian Version|AEIOU/Schulärztlicher_Dienst|class='wikipage austrian'] %% [{FreezeArticle author='AEIOU' template='Lexikon_1995_englisch'}] [{ALLOW view All}][{ALLOW comment All}][{ALLOW edit FreezeAdmin}]
