Flu vaccinations offered for all students (3 December)
Parents and carers are asked to complete the form below to indicate if they do or do not consent to their child having a flu vaccination. The deadline is midnight, 11 November.
The vaccination in most cases is given by a simple spray up the nose. For those parents/guardians who object to the nasal vaccine on the grounds of porcine gelatine content or dietary requirements, an alternative vaccination (injection) is also available.
