Why School Vaccines Are Essential to Your Child’s Health

Introduction: 

School Vaccinations: What Parents Need to Know

Keeping your child healthy is essential — and school vaccinations are one of the simplest ways to protect them from serious, preventable illnesses. In the UK, vaccines such as MMR, DTP, and Polio help stop the spread of infections in schools, reduce outbreaks, and keep pupils in the classroom.

Why School Vaccinations Matter

  • Protect against serious disease such as measles, whooping cough and tetanus

  • Prevent outbreaks in busy school settings

  • Support herd immunity, protecting vulnerable pupils who can’t be vaccinated

  • Reduce school absences caused by illness


How Emcare Travel Clinic Helps

At Emcare Travel Clinic, we make school and group vaccinations simple for parents and schools across Glasgow and the UK.

We offer:

  • School & group vaccination programmes

  • Custom schedules tailored to each school

  • On-site vaccination clinics for convenience

  • Easy appointment booking for individual families

Our team provides clear guidance on the vaccination schedule and ensures your child receives the right vaccines at the right time.


Vaccine Safety

All vaccines used in the UK are thoroughly tested and monitored. Mild side effects like a sore arm can occur, but serious reactions are extremely rare. Vaccination remains one of the safest and most effective ways to protect your child’s health.
