Vaccinations help your child from many serious diseases.

• Babies have their first vaccinations at eight weeks, 12 weeks, 16 weeks and one year. It’s safe to give babies and children several vaccines at a time.
• Toddlers will be offered pre-school vaccinations at three years and four months.
• Teenagers will be offered booster vaccinations in year eight and year nine at school.

After your child receives their baby and pre-school immunisations at the doctors, the rest of their childhood vaccinations are given in school by the School Age Immunisation Service. This service is available to all children and young people of school age, whether they attend state school, independent school, complex needs schools or alternative settings.

Children and young people who are educated at home can attend community clinics or their local school to receive the vaccines.

To find out if your child’s vaccinations are up to date, you can check their personal child health record (Red Book) or call your GP Surgery.

You can also contact your GP surgery if your child has missed any of their vaccinations.
Vaccinations help protect your child from many serious diseases.
