School nurses will be attending schools to vaccinate students with the Seasonal Flu Vaccine starting from September 2024.

Please visit https://www.sheffieldchildrensvaccinations.co.uk/Forms/Flu to complete the consent form. The option to consent or decline the vaccination is at the end of the questionnaire so please complete this even if you do not want your child to have the vaccination.

The nasal flu vaccine contains products derived from pigs (porcine gelatine). To opt for the gelatine-free inactive injection, select ‘NO’ on the nasal spray option and you will be given further options to choose.

Vaccination date: 12/Dec/2024

We are looking forward to welcoming all students back to Chaucer on Tuesday, 3rd September 2024 at 8.30am. Students in Years 8, 9, 10 and 11 are to go directly to their form room.

All Year 7s are to go straight to the main hall when they arrive in school for 8:30am (similar to their transition days) and look for their allocated form tutor. The year team will be on hand to help anyone who does not know who their form tutor is. We are excited to see you all next week!

We're really proud to share with you OFSTED's letter from the recent monitoring visit, just before the Easter break. This was the third monitoring visit after the Special Measures judgement in June 2022, and although each visit has been a positive one, inspectors were very impressed during this visit with the amount of improvements they saw across all aspects of school.
