Abstract	An old building in Newbould Lane was home to the LEA's Psychological Service. A notice on the staff room wall throughout my seven years and a term announced that "Constant change is here to stay." Certainly, there had been change: the student intake to all the city's secondary schools had become mixed and comprehensive in the late 1960s; the raising of the school leaving age to 16 (ROSLA) starting in September 1972 was attracting intense discussion; the transfer of responsibility for education of children with severe learning difficulties -- then known as ESN(S) (educationally subnormal -- severe) -- from health to education created a new category of special school. In retrospect, though, David Galloway reflects that the 1970s seem a peaceful time for education. In this article Galloway describes his time working as an educational psychologist (EP) at Sheffield LEA's Psychological Service in England. He details the caseload, school-focused service, critique of individualism, interdisciplinary tensions, time management and theoretical framework, and two of the Psychological Service's more formal projects. Galloway concludes with sections addressing policy and professional practice, respectively. (ERIC).
