For those aged 12 to 15 years consent will be sought by the SAIS provider from the parent or person with parental responsibility in the same way as for any other school vaccination programme. Parents may withdraw consent at any time. Where consent has been obtained for a full course, the SAIS team will generally check that your child still has consent to proceed at the next dose. Parents will also be provided with a contact number for the SAIS team in case of any queries. Forms should be returned by the deadline agreed with the team. You may be asked to collect these forms from parents on behalf of the SAIS provider team or it may be done electronically. The school can play an important role by:
sharing the leaflets and information
signposting parents and children to official sources of information on vaccines
sending out email links, letters and reminders
