Details
From the 2015 to 2016 academic year adolescents in school year 9 or 10 should be offered MenACWY conjugate vaccine instead of the MenC vaccine offered previously. In addition, a one-off catch-up cohort of school year 11 adolescents should be offered MenACWY immunisation from the spring term (from January 2016).
These documents are templates to be adapted for use locally and provided to schools for information or for schools to distribute to eligible students, along with the appropriate MenACWY leaflet.
