Community and School-Aged Immunisation Service (CSAIS)

The Community and School-Aged Immunisation Service (CSAIS) providers are currently visiting all primary schools in the region to offer flu vaccination to children in Years Reception to 6 (aged 4 to 10 years on 31 August 2022).

Missed school session

If a child misses a school session, either because they were off on the day of visit or they are not attending school for any reason, parents/carers should be advised to contact the CSAIS provider directly to arrange for vaccination in a scheduled community clinic.

Contact details for CSAIS providers in Cambridgeshire, Norfolk & Suffolk

Please share these contact details to access the flu vaccination for 4-10 year olds with parents/carers.

Clinical risk group

Any child or young person who is in a clinical risk group is eligible to get the flu vaccination at their GP practice and should be advised to contact their GP directly.

Not in clinically at-risk group

All 2- and 3-year-olds, not in a clinically at-risk group (born on or after 1 September 2018 and on or before 31 August 2020) should also be advised to contact their GP practice for their flu vaccination.

Secondary schools

Visits to secondary schools have been provisionally scheduled for later in the year pending vaccine supply.
