Trial Information

Educational Follow-up in a Cohort of Children at the Royal Marsden Hospital, Following the Treatment of a Brain Tumour


This will be a retrospective study. Cases will be identified by looking at the Royal Marsden
Hospital (RMH) coding database. All the patients will have completed treatment for a brain
tumour. The children all need to have started school before the diagnosis of their brain
tumour so that we can look at easily defined educational assessments in this cohort.
Children will be identified by looking at RMH coding of diagnosis and include children aged
between 4 years and 18 years old (school age).


Inclusion Criteria:



- patients/parental consent for RMH accessing educational information from them and
their school
