Returning To School After Cancer Treatment

Returning to 'a new normal'

When a young person returns to school after cancer it can be a good sign that their life is returning to their 'new normal'.

While it is an exciting time for a child with cancer, it can also be an apprehensive time for both parents and teachers.

We have sections to help both teachers and parents with the transition back to school after cancer.
