Flu Immunisations 2024

The children's nasal spray flu vaccine is safe and effective. It's offered every year to children to help protect them against flu.

Flu is caused by the influenza virus. It can be a very unpleasant illness for children. It can also lead to serious problems, such as bronchitis and pneumonia.

Children can catch and spread flu easily. Vaccinating them also protects others who are vulnerable to flu, such as babies and older people.

Who should have the nasal spray flu vaccine

The nasal spray flu vaccine is free on the NHS for:

children aged 2 or 3 years on 31 August 2023 (born between 1 September 2019 and 31 August 2021)
all primary school children (Reception to Year 6)
some secondary school aged children (Year 7 to Year 11)
children aged 2 to 17 years with certain long-term health conditions

If your child is aged between 6 months and 2 years and has a long-term health condition that makes them at higher risk from flu, they'll be offered a flu vaccine injection instead of the nasal spray.

This is because the nasal spray is not licensed for children under 2 years old.

The nasal spray vaccine offers the best protection for children aged 2 to 17 years. They'll be offered a flu vaccine injection if the nasal spray vaccine is not suitable for them. Injected flu vaccines are also safe and effective.

Flu vaccines will be taking place within the school on Tuesday 15th October 2024.

To give consent for your child to have the flu vaccine, please click the link below:

Even if you do not wish for your child to have the vaccine, please complete the online form so that we can record your wishes.
