موانع برای دسترسی به آموزش برای جوانان مبتلا به صرع در شمال تانزانیا: یک مصاحبه کیفی و مطالعه گروه تمرکز شامل معلمان، والدین و جوانان مبتلا به صرع

A multidimensional approach is needed to improve educational access, and hence outcomes, for YPE. Widespread community education is needed to improve knowledge of epilepsy etiology and management. Teachers require seizure management training, and parents need help to recognize YPE's right to education. Educational needs assessments would help to identify YPE requiring specialist schooling, and access to this could be improved. These interventions will likely reduce stigma, ensure appropriate academic and pastoral care at school, and thus enable YPE to attend, and succeed, in education.
