Funding to support phase 2 of the 12 to 15 year old vaccination programme

In support of phase 2 of the 12 to 15 vaccination programme, the government have announced that secondary schools will be provided with a one-off payment of £1,000, with an additional uplift for larger schools based on pupil numbers.

This funding is to support schools in hosting vaccinations and ensuring that the COVID-19 vaccine is accessible to pupils.

Further information on this funding is available on the secondary schools and colleges document sharing platform. Payments to secondary schools will be made through the Education and Skills Funding Agency, commencing April 2022.
