Due to the increasing number of Polish migrants we can observe a growing number of people who, after some time spent abroad, decide to return to their country of origin. Consequently, as return migrations are a multifaceted processes, there are many questions about the psychological context of this experience. The following article will constitute an attempt to answer the question about the psychological aspects of the return migrations on the basis of a theoretical review of psychological concepts and research conducted to date. Issues related to the phenomenon of the return culture shock, the role of changes in cultural identity, the expectations related to return, and the role of individual differences will be discussed. This review may be a starting point for further empirical research on return migrants.

The present paper is based on the research project “(Un)easy returns home. The functioning of children and young people returning from emigration”, the main goal of which was to investigate and describe the experience of children from Polish returning migrant families, and specifically to answer the question: What kind of challenges do children from families returning to Poland face when entering the Polish educational system? We conducted qualitative research taking into consideration four perspectives: children, adolescents, parents and teachers. In this paper, we focus on the most important challenges in a new educational context based on the narrations of children, adolescents, parents and teachers and dividing the challenges into three groups: purely educational, socio-cultural and emotional. Finally, we also discuss best practices which proved helpful for children’s adaptation to the new environment and which may be used in the school context.
