My presidential address is an opportunity to chronicle the endeavours of the dental profession. The advent of the National Health Service and the impact of socialized dentistry is recorded in terms of the aims, methods and achievements of the General Dental Service. Particular reference is made to the past 25 years along with a capsulation of some of my hopes for the future. Let us remember that our hopes are the seed corn of future deeds.

Abstract School speech-language pathologists and districts frequently need guidance regarding how the legal provisions of special education affect the needs of children with dysphagia. This article reviews key principles of special education that guide eligibility determination and provision of services to all children. In the eligibility process, the school team would determine if the child's disability has an adverse effect on his/her education program and if the child needed special education (specially designed instruction) and related services. Dysphagia services would be considered a related service, a health service needed for the child to benefit from specially designed instruction. The article concludes with recommendations for practice that stem from a review of due process hearings and court cases for children with disabilities that include swallowing.
