The Immunisation Team work for IntraHealth delivering an NHS school-based immunisation programme.

The service is offered and delivered in every high school in Lancashire.

 

Current Immunisation Programme 2018/2019:

  • After Christmas - All year 9 students Diphtheria, Tetanus, Polio (DTP) and Meningitis ACWY
  • After Easter - Year 8 girls second HPV dose

 

Consent forms are sent home with the child prior to these sessions and should be signed and returned to school as soon as possible.
