About the service

Immunisation makes sure that our bodies are best-protected against some serious diseases. It means that if we come into contact with certain diseases our bodies are better-equipped to fight them off.

As a result of the UK’s national immunisation programme, a number of diseases have disappeared from the UK, such as polio. However, as they are still present in other countries, they could come back, so it is vital that we remain protected. Maintaining high immunisation rates means that we not only protect ourselves, but also our families and communities, and it helps to keep diseases at bay.

We offer the following immunisation services through our School Vaccination Programme.

Our school-based immunisation team is responsible for school-based immunisation programmes in the boroughs of Hammersmith & Fulham, Kensington and Chelsea, Westminster, Brent, Ealing, Hillingdon and Camden.

Our vaccination programmes are primarily carried out in school-based settings and are delivered according to national campaigns and the scheduled school vaccination programme. 

We offer local catch-up clinics for those children who have been absent during school vaccination programmes or for young people who are educated at home or have an individual need.

We offer the following vaccinations:

  • The HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) vaccine for 12 to 13 year old girls in year 8 and from September 2019 boys aged 12 to 13 years at school in year 8
  • The DTP (diphtheria, tetanus and polio) teenage booster for 13 to 14 year old girls and boys in year 9
  • Meningococcal (Meningitis) ACWY vaccine for 13 to 14 year old girls and boys in year 9
  • Seasonal influenza (‘flu) vaccination (Reception class and years 1, 2, 3, 4,5 and 6)

We also offer a BCG vaccination programme. Visit our web page to find out more.

Other services we offer include:

  • Guidance on immunisation for professionals looking after children with underlying medical conditions
  • Specialist immunisation advice to GP practices and other health professionals
  • Interventions to reduce inequalities in the uptake for special groups (travellers, looked after children, unaccompanied children asylum-seekers, unregistered children and child in need).

All children in education are automatically referred. Parents will receive a letter from their child’s school with a link to an online electronic consent form. If you are unable to access/use the electronic consent system you can collect a paper form from your child’s school.

Parents and professionals can self-refer children who missed their vaccinations in school by calling the immunisation service directly.

The School Immunisation Team now use online consent forms. This is a quick and simple process.

Access the online consent form here.

How to use the online consent form

To begin, please locate your child's school by typing the name of the school in the search bar above the list of schools. Click on the corresponding link to the right, which will redirect you to the online ParentPortal. There, you can easily indicate your consent for the vaccination.

Should you encounter any difficulties while using the ParentPortal, please contact the immunisation team on: 01895 485 740 (Brent, Ealing and Hillingdon) or 0203 317 5076 (Hammersmith and Fulham, Kensington and Chelsea, Westminster and Camden)

Please note: If accessing via laptop or desktop, please don’t use Internet Explorer, instead use other internet browser such as Chrome.

How to search for your child's school

For best results, please type in the name of your child’s school in the ‘School name’ section.

If you need to narrow your search, you can select the borough, school year and campaign. However, please note if a particular campaign isn’t showing for your school year, please try selecting ‘reception to year 11’.

If your child is in year 8 or year 9 and you want to consent for the flu campaign, please select reception to year 11' in the campaign drop down.

Hints and tips for your search

If you're struggling to find a school in the search, please try using key words instead of typing the name of the full school. For instance, instead of 'St Paul's', you might want to typing in 'paul'. 

If you are struggling to access/use the electronic consent system please contact your school who will be able to offer you a paper consent form.

The team is led by an immunisations specialist nurse manager. The schools Immunisation team work in partnership with the UK Health Security Agency (formerly Public Health England), GPs, the school nursing teams and health visiting service and other partners including community children’s nursing teams, looked-after children's teams, the child development centre and children’s social care.
