Cystic Fibrosis

CF at School

Having a child with cystic fibrosis (CF) in your class is very manageable with a few simple considerations. Through open communication with parents and carers, staff education, practical planning and a supportive school environment, students with CF can fully participate in classroom learning, sport, excursions and all aspects of school life.

Explore how our CFSmart program can support you to learn more about CF, how it may impact a child in an education setting, and the simple ways you can support a student with CF in your care.
