We were aged from 10 to 13 years when we had our baths and medicals. The matron would have been in her mid-fifties. One of her assistants was in her 40s I'd say and the other occasional assistant in her 30s perhaps. Hard to say.
After school on a Friday we'd go to the washrooms where the matron had already run our baths. Some of us would get into the bath together (3 or 4 at a time) - the rest would be under the shower. The matron was always popping in and out during this time. She didn't always inspect everyone (we'd have been there all day!) but she did "spot checks" where we'd have to open our towels in front of her and show ourselves. It sounds very dodgy now, but actually we just accepted it and got used to it.
When we were seeing the doctor we'd go over to the medical centre in dressing gowns. We usually left these off in matron's office and walked down the corridor nude, 3 or 4 at a time, to the doctor's. I don't know why we did this. It was a bit strange. The actual exam was pretty low key. We had to stand on a mat in front of the doctor while he looked at us. Some boys claimed the doctor lifted up their penis to look at their testes, but this never happened to me. As I recall we had the stethoscope on chest and back, ear and throat exams but I don't recall anything else.
The doc was male (always the same) and the matron and or a nurse were present as far as I recall.
After the first three years we were still examined every year, but not nude. My best memory is having a tetanus injection in my bottom from the matron's assistant in my final year!

The nurse stood behind us and turned our heads gently to the left as the doctor,a woman, pulled down our shorts to check our genitles. Some on this board have refered to this as the "shocker".
