Second jabs in schools

I've read that 12+ will be offered their second vaccine in school. Anyone know if this is likely to happen or if I should just look at vaccination centres. None anywhere near me seem to be offering them

My DC's school was the first in our town to offer 1st vaccinations to 12-15 year olds, but even they have no date yet for the 2nd ones.
Pretty much everyone has just gone to a walk in centre.

So I'd look at vaccination centres. We are finding more places are opening up to 12-15 year olds now the big push to get adults boosted has subsided, so keep looking!

I took mine in the holidays to a vaccination centre as soon as they were eligible x

My experience with the first vaccine was crap, immunisation team screwed up several times so I ended up taking my child to a walk in. I won't be holding my breath that they'll be coming back to school to do a second, although having said that the nearest I can find at the moment is about 20 miles away!

I just booked mine through the online booking. The roll out for first vaccines in school was chaos and more children got missed than actually received it. I took him myself so o knew it would actually be done.

I've had dates through for my dc school (feb 4th) and signed the consent form.

I think it depends on the area. The vaccination team are in my school next week. I would contact your school if you want to know.

Yes our school are offering dates for it next month.

Our schools are offering in March but we have been told the numbers of vaccines will fall short, and to attend a drop in if we can.

We had our consent forms through a couple of days ago, however we had a previous letter regarding the 2nd jabs quite a while ago.
