Pupils with Cancer – A Guide for Teachers

The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust and The Specialist Schools and Academies Trust have collaborated to produce this new guide for teachers. It is now available for use by treatment centres as part of their outreach work to schools on behalf of their patients as well as to schools and teachers.

We hope that users will find it a valuable tool in achieving effective support for their pupils / patients. Although mainly aimed at secondary schools we believe teachers and professionals supporting pupils in other age groups will find it helpful and informative.
The guide is available to download as a pdf version from:
www.royalmarsden.org.uk/teachersguide


A similar book aimed specifically at pupils with brain tumours is available from the same website: ‘Returning to School – A teachers’ guide for pupils with brain tumours
