Limited progression through lower secondary education may affect future educational and employment opportunities. In rural areas, pass rates on the Grade 10 national examination are modest, and some students leave school before completing lower secondary education. This study will evaluate whether tutoring improves academic outcomes and school continuation in the Taabo region of Côte d'Ivoire.\n\nApproximately 1,000 adolescents will participate in two related substudies. The first substudy will include 500 Grade 10 students identified by schools as being at risk of not passing the national examination. The second substudy will include 500 adolescents who previously attended Grades 7-9 but are not currently enrolled in school. Within each substudy, participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: peer tutoring, teacher tutoring, or no additional tutoring (control group).\n\nStudents assigned to tutoring may receive up to 15 sessions over approximately 6 to 8 months. Tutoring sessions will focus on reviewing core curriculum content, preparing for examinations, and strengthening academic skills.\n\nThe primary outcomes are (1) passing the Grade 10 national examination and (2) enrollment in lower secondary school in the following academic year. Secondary outcomes include grade progression, study time, academic confidence, cost-effectiveness of the tutoring models, academic and well-being outcomes among peer tutors, and other longer-term outcomes (educational attainment, early family formation, mental health).",[26,27,28,29,30],"Secondary School Entry and Completion","Education Advancement","School Attendance","Educational Attainment","Academic Performance",[32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47],"Secondary education","School completion","Grade 10 national examination","Tutoring intervention","Peer tutoring","Teacher tutoring","Randomized controlled trial","Education intervention","Academic achievement","School enrollment","School re-enrollment","Lower secondary school","Adolescents","Côte d'Ivoire","Sub-Saharan Africa","Cost-effectiveness","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-06-30",{"date":51,"type":52},"2026-07-02","ACTUAL",{"date":54,"type":20},"2026-09",{"date":56,"type":20},"2041-08",{"name":58,"class":59},"San Diego State University","OTHER",1,{"id":62,"slug":63,"hasResults":11,"nctId":64,"briefTitle":65,"officialTitle":66,"acronym":67,"eligibilityCriteria":68,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":16,"minAge":69,"maxAge":70,"enrollmentInfo":71,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":21,"phases":73,"briefSummary":74,"conditions":75,"keywords":79,"overallStatus":87,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":88,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":89,"startDateStruct":91,"completionDateStruct":93,"leadSponsor":95,"locationsCount":97},"100623595","schoolcare-a-social-intervention-introducing-telepresence-robots-and-school-navigation-to-reduce-school-fragmentation-for-children-undergoing-cancer-treatment-100623595","NCT07398677","SchoolCare: A Social Intervention Introducing Telepresence Robots and School Navigation to Reduce School Fragmentation for Children Undergoing Cancer Treatment","SchoolCare: A Social Intervention Introducing Telepresence Robots and School Navigation to Reduce School Fragmentation for Children Undergoing Cancer Treatment - Study Protocol of a Multi-Site Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT)","SchoolCare","Children and adolescents are eligible for inclusion if they meet the following criteria: they are: (1) diagnosed with cancer or cancer-like diseases withing two months of inclusion (e.g., benign brain tumors, MDS, or LCH ); (2) have undergone a stem cell transplant, or have experienced cancer relapse or disease progression within the two months of inclusion; (3) aged 5-17 years; (4) admitted to the pediatric oncology ward at Copenhagen University Hospital, Aarhus University Hospital, or Aalborg University Hospital; (5) expected to experience disrupted schooling, defined as absence of more than one school day per week over an anticipated period of eight months; and (6) enrolled, or expected enrolment, in a school in Denmark during the eight month intervention period.\n\nParticipants will be excluded if: (1) the children in intervention arm B obtain a telepresence robot outside of the SchoolCare intervention; (2) the child is unable to communicate in Danish; or (3) the child has physical or cognitive impairments that prevent them from operating or meaningfully engaging with the telepresence robot.

Despite improved survival, children and adolescents who survive cancer often face significant short- and long-term psychosocial and physical late effects. Children undergoing cancer treatment often experience prolonged school absence, which disrupts their academic development and impedes critical socio-emotional growth during formative school years, with lasting consequences into adulthood. Together, these challenges underscore the need for targeted interventions that support educational continuity, promote school activity, and foster psychosocial well-being.\n\nThe SchoolCare Intervention aims to reduce school absence experienced by children diagnosed with cancer during their treatment trajectory. The intervention introduces school navigation support in combination with the use of telepresence robots (TPRs) and a teleteaching program. TPRs enable the children to attend school remotely, when they are not able to attend physically. The study is designed to investigate the effectiveness of the intervention throughout a period of eight months for school-aged children (i.e., 5-17 years) who are diagnosed with cancer. The investigators hypothesize that telepresence robots will increase school attendance among children and adolescents diagnosed with cancer, representing our primary outcome (H1). Additionally, the investigators explore secondary outcomes by hypothesizing that the intervention will improve the social well-being of these children and adolescents (H2) and enhance their academic level (H3). By focusing on both school attendance and broader psychosocial and academic effects, this study will provide a comprehensive evaluation of the telepresence robot intervention and its potential to support educational continuity and well-being for children with cancer.",[28,76,77,78],"Academic Level","Childhood Cancer Survivors","Social Well-being",[28,80,81,82,83,84,85,86],"Social well-being","Robot","Telepresence","Cancer","School","Children","School Navigation","RECRUITING","2026-03-17",{"date":90,"type":52},"2026-03-19",{"date":92,"type":52},"2026-02-20",{"date":94,"type":20},"2028-09-30",{"name":96,"class":59},"Rigshospitalet, Denmark",3]
