I Sverige upptäcks varje år cirka 250 fall av cancer bland barn och ungdomar under 15 års ålder. Den tredje vanligaste mottagaren av vård i Sverige är barn, vilket innebär att föräldrar till ett barn med cancer påverkas negativt i vad gäller förvärvsarbete, ekonomi och livskvalitet. Föräldrarna tvingas konfronteras med flera fysiska, emotionella och psykosociala problem i samband med barnets behandling. I denna situation, då föräldrar tillsammans med sitt cancersjuka barn kommer i kontakt med hälso- och sjukvården skapas en ny livssituation för hela familjen. För att sjuksköterskan ska vara ett gott stöd i omvårdnaden av barnet, är det relevant att belysa föräldrars upplevelser för att förstå vilka behov som finns.

In this thesis, the results of a survey regarding grade progression between secondary and upper secondary school in a municipality in the north of Sweden serve as the starting point for a study of the experiences and expectations of a number of 16 year old girls who are in the first year of upper secondary school. The study is performed by means of focus group interviews with female pupils from the three largest upper secondary schools in said municipality in an attempt to gauge their experiences of grades, grade assessment, teacher practices and perceived differences in how boys and girls are treated. The results show that most of the girls are disappointed with upper secondary school so far. Many of them feel that secondary school was both more fun and more rewarding in a sense of learning. Their appreciation of how this more rewarding atmosphere affected their grades differed between the various groups.
