1. Title: A Priest Conducting Psychological Tests at Besford Court College, Worcestershire This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at Besford Court College, Worcestershire, during an era when care and welfare services for children with mental health issues were in their infancy. The image shows a robed priest, his expression serious and focused, as he administers psychological tests to two young boys, both dressed in simple, plain clothing. Besford Court College was established in 1918 as an Industrial School for Roman Catholic mentally defective boys. At the time, such institutions were a crucial part of the social fabric, providing care and education for children who were often misunderstood and marginalized by society. The College aimed to offer a safe and nurturing environment where these boys could receive the support they needed to develop and thrive. The psychological testing being conducted in this photograph was likely an essential part of the assessment process for new arrivals at the College. These tests would help identify each child's unique needs and abilities, enabling the staff to create personalized care plans and educational programs tailored to their individual requirements. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the dedication and compassion shown by those who worked in institutions like Besford Court College. Despite the challenges they faced, these individuals were committed to making a difference in the lives of vulnerable children, ensuring they received the care and support they deserved. This photograph, with its powerful and evocative imagery, offers a glimpse into the past, shedding light on the important role that care homes and welfare services have played in shaping the lives of countless children throughout history.
