Vaccinations and Immunisations

The last few months have been an exceptionally challenging time for both schools and health services. This has had an effect on students receiving their vaccinations and immunisations at school.  As you will be aware the school age vaccination programme was suspended at the beginning of the outbreak leaving a large number of students outstanding vaccinations.

There is a plan of recovery to ensure that all these students are caught up by the end of August 2021. Please see the dates below that are scheduled in for the 20/21 academic year in order to deliver vaccinations to the eligible students at XP/XP East School.

YEAR 10 BOYS & GIRLS SLB/MEN-ACWY 26/01/2021

YEAR 9 BOYS & GIRLS   SLB/MEN-ACWY 26/01/2021

YEAR 8 BOYS & GIRLS 1ST DOSE HPV 06/05/2021

YEAR 9 BOYS & GIRLS 2ND DOSE HPV 06/05/2021

Please Note: Due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19, NHS England have also specified that the seasonal flu programme this year will be extended to include Year 7 students. This will be the first time that Flu vaccinations will have been delivered in secondary schools. Flu vaccinations take place in December 2020.  Further information and permission letters will be sent to all parents for consent nearer the date.
