COVID Vaccinations
COVID-19 Immunisation 2021/22 – e-consent form click here
Invitation letter for parents of children aged 12 to 15 years of age
1st November 2021
Dear Parent / Carer,
I am writing to inform you that we will soon be offering COVID-19 vaccinations in school. I would like to ask if you wish to give your consent for your child to receive a single dose of the vaccine.
This vaccination will be free of charge and our highest priority is making it easy for children to access one dose of the vaccine before the winter.
The main purpose of the COVID-19 school age vaccination programme is to provide protection to the children who receive the vaccine and it may also help to reduce transmission of COVID-19 in the wider population.
During the vaccination delivery we will maintain the range of measures we have in place to keep you safe from COVID-19.
The vaccinations for students whose parents have given consent will be carried out by an NHS immunisation team at Blessed Edward Oldcorne Catholic College on Wednesday 24th November 2021.
Please do take the time to read the additional information which is provided in the links below to help you and your child to make an informed decision about the COVID-19 vaccination.
The government have produced information for parents and carers, which you can read here:
COVID-19 vaccination programme for young people: guidance for parents
There is also information for 12–17-year-olds, which you can read with your child:
COVID-19 vaccination – A guide for children and young people
Please indicate your consent by completing the online e-consent. Please note that the cut-off for completing the consent is 2 days before the scheduled session, so we kindly ask that you complete this as soon as possible.
