Dear Parents & Carers,

The Greater Manchester Health Authority has asked if they can work with our School Nursing team to deliver Flu vaccinations to any child who has been given parental consent.

For the majority of children the nasal spray form of the vaccination would be appropriate, but there is another option in the form of an injection if needed.

Taking part in this vaccination programme is entirely voluntary and any parent who does NOT want their child to take part should select the NO option on the consent form.

A link will be sent directly to you, from IntraHealth so that you can choose to give consent, so please keep a look out for this.  

We have taken the decision to minimise anxiety for the children and ensure a safe procedure that a parent must be present when their child receives the vaccine.

Planned Vaccination Date – Wednesday 30th September 2026

Once we have a list of all children that have consented, we will send out an allocated time slot for you to attend on the day. Please note that your child can only receive the vaccine if a parent/Carer can attend on the day.

Regards

Delamere School
