Consent for school age vaccinations is via an e-consent form instead of paper forms sent home from school.
Online forms are used by parents and carers to consent for all school-based vaccinations:
- Seasonal flu
- DTP (diphtheria, tetanus, polio)
- HPV (human papillomavirus)
- MenACWY
- MMR (measles, mumps and rubella)
When competing an e-consent form parents and carers need to add the code for their child’s school. Find your child’s school code:
Wirral and Cheshire East e-consent forms
Teenage booster – DTP (diphtheria, tetanus, polio)
How e-consent works…
• as a parents or carer you will receive a link to the e-consent form. This will be sent via an email or text from your child’s school
• upon receiving the link you will complete the form and click submit
• you will then receive an email confirming consent
• your completed e-consent form will be sent to our secure portal
• a report containing all consent forms will be generated and sent to the Trust’s immunisation team
• vaccination lists are generated your child will receive his / her / their vaccination in school.
