Fri 16 Jan 2026
Barnsley School Aged Immunisation Service
Dear Parents and Carers,
As part of the UK routine Childhood Immunisation Schedule, we are offering the 3-in-1 teenage booster and MenACWY vaccines to your child. The 3-in-1 teenage booster protects against three different diseases – Diphtheria, Tetanus and Polio. The MenACWY protects against
Meningococcal A, C, W & Y.
Why is it important to protect your children from these diseases?
Diphtheria – is a life-threatening disease where poisons produced by the bacteria entering the blood stream can damage the heart and other organs.
Tetanus – is a disease that tends to be caused by an infected wound and can be fatal.
Polio – can result in severe paralysis and can be fatal.
Meningitis – can affect all age groups, which can cause two very serious illnesses, meningitis, and septicemia.

Teenage 3 in 1 booster - Td/IPV
Protect yourself against meningitis and septicaemia with the MenACWY vaccine
Barnsley School Aged Immunisation Team will be visiting Outwood Shafton on 17th and 18th of March to administer these vaccines. Please complete a Yes/No consent form at TDIPV MenACWY Vaccination Consent Form using school code BN139211
