The school nursing service will visit your child’s school to deliver routine vaccinations and the seasonal flu vaccine.

In order to provide maximum protection, it's important children and young people get their vaccinations on time and complete the course when more than one dose is required.

Parents and carers will be sent the consent form when you receive the information pack. Please ensure you have returned your child’s consent form to the school, or via the e-consent app for flu.

If you have any queries about school vaccinations, or have misplaced or lost your consent form, please ring the school nursing service on 01639 682601.

If you think your child or teenager may have missed any childhood vaccinations, please check with their GP Surgery, and book an appointment, if necessary, to get them protected.

The childhood Immunisation schedule is designed to provide maximum protection and it is important that young people complete courses, to be provided lifelong protection. Routine childhood vaccinations are highly effective, safe and free.

New to Wales? If you and your child/children have moved to Wales from another country, please ensure your child/children are vaccinated according to the Wales schedule. The timings of childhood immunisations can vary between countries and your child/children may need an additional dose of certain vaccinations to bring them in line with our schedule and ensure they have the maximum protection. Check with the School Nursing Service on 01639 862801 or your GP surgery.
