- Year 10 & Year 11 – To be offered any missing vaccinations - Td/IPV, MenACWY, HPV and MMR
Vaccination sessions will be offered at schools using an online consent form system, which allows parents to consent for their child's vaccination(s) at school or within a clinic setting.

Forms must be completed by person(s) with PARENTAL RESPONSIBILTY
The person(s) with parental responsibility will usually, but not invariably be the child’s birth parents. People with parental responsibility for the child include: the child’s mother; the child’s father if married to the mother at the child’s conception, birth or later; a legally appointed guardian; the local authority if the child is on a care order; or a person named in a residence order in respect of the child. Fathers who have never been married to the child’s mother will only have parental responsibility if they acquired it through a court order or parental responsibility agreement. After the 30th November 2003 unmarried fathers have automatic parental responsibility for their children if they are named on the birth certificate.
For a child born before the 30th November 2003, they can be re-registered and the father named on the birth certificate, after which the father will have automatic parental responsibility.
