In the UK, it was the Nit Nurse who came in, dressed in the starchiest of faces and the sternest of uniforms, to check every child for lice eggs and larvae.
Everyone lined up and the first sign of anything that was not a perfect scalp was immediately pulled out of line and parents called.
Ours was a whole process of things. We lined up in the library and walked into a whole barrage of test stations. The eye test scope, the sound test head phones and then on the way out the nurse checked our scalp.
