Updated May 24, 2023
The following vaccines are available at school immunization program clinics:
In Ontario, the Immunization of School Pupil Act (ISPA) requires all students to be up to date with Meningococcal vaccines or have a valid exemption even if they received a Meningococcal vaccine as a child. Toronto Public Health (TPH) is currently investigating a Meningococcal Disease outbreak. The Meningococcal quadrivalent vaccine offered at our clinics includes coverage for this rare strain. Hepatitis B and Human Papillomavirus vaccines are strongly recommended. For more information, visit our school immunization program resources section.
Read about the benefits of receiving these vaccines, and review the Hepatitis B, Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and Meningococcal vaccine fact sheets for more information. Speak to a health care provider if you have questions or concerns.
There are several opportunities to get vaccinated:
We will be returning to all elementary and some secondary schools to provide students in grade 7 to 12 their next dose of the Hepatitis B and Human Papillomavirus vaccines. Students who have not yet received these vaccines and/or the Meningococcal vaccine can also get vaccinated at these clinics.
Please note, these school-based clinics are offered during school hours to students who attend the school. These clinics are not open to the public. Visit TPHBookings.ca to find out about other City Immunization clinics that are open to the public and offer School Immunization Program vaccines.

Vaccines are safe, effective and one of the most important ways to improve health worldwide and prevent the spread of infectious diseases. Vaccinating children and youth helps protect them against infectious diseases and some cancers, and can prevent children and youth from passing on an infection to other vulnerable people in their family or school community.
Vaccines offered to teens and young adults are safe and protect them from:
Meningococcal disease is very rare, but it can become life threatening quickly. It is the leading cause of bacterial meningitis in teens and young adults. The bacteria infects the lining of the brain leading to strokes, hearing loss, seizures or blood infection. This vaccine is required to attend school in Ontario, and may be needed for travel and/or postsecondary education.
Meningococcal vaccines are 80-85% effective at protecting against four types of bacteria that cause meningitis.
The hepatitis B virus is spread by infected body fluids. This can include improper cleaning of spa, tattoo, medical and dental instruments. Many people with infection may not have symptoms and can continue to spread the infection to others. Some infections can cause permanent liver damage, cirrhosis and cancer. This vaccine is recommended before travel and for some career choices, like health care.
Hepatitis B vaccines are over 95% effective at protecting against hepatitis B virus infections. Students, ages 11 to 15 need 2 doses, given 6 months apart. Students with a weak immune system or ages 16 and older will need a third dose.
There are different types of human papillomavirus (HPV). Many people do not know they are infected and never develop symptoms. Human papillomavirus infections cause many cancers of the mouth, head and neck, cervix and genitals.
The HPV vaccine (Gardasil®-9) is over 95% effective at protecting against 9 types of HPV infections. Students ages 9 to 14 years old need 2 doses, given six months apart. Students with a weak immune system or those who are 15 years and older at the time of their first dose will need a third dose.
Available for free at school immunization program clinics, City-run clinics or some health care provider offices.

Meningococcal vaccine
(1 dose) |
All grade 7 to 12 students*

* Current students in grades 7 to 12 are eligible for all three vaccines regardless of their age.
**If you are born in 2002, 2003, and 2004 and missed HPV vaccine doses due to the pandemic, you have extra time to get vaccinated until August 31, 2023.
Toronto Public Health is hosting School Immunization Program clinics for Grade 7 and 8 students in schools across Toronto during the school year. These clinics will be held during school hours and no appointment is needed. Information and consent packages will be sent to families. Parental consent will be required.
Resources:
Toronto Public Health provides immunization clinics in schools to vaccinate eligible students with Meningococcal, Human Papillomavirus and Hepatitis B vaccines. These vaccines are usually offered to students in Grade 7 and Grade 8. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the TPH School Immunization Program was paused and many children and youth did not receive these lifesaving vaccines, especially students currently enrolled in Grades 9 and 10.
Toronto Public Health is providing catch-up opportunities for secondary school students who are missing one or more dose(s) of these vaccines. These clinics will be offered on-site during school hours. School principals will provide information to students and their parents/guardians in advance of their school’s clinic date.
Resources:
All Grade 7 to 12 students and other eligible individuals who missed getting these school-based vaccines can attend City-run vaccination clinics to receive any missed doses. COVID-19 vaccines are also available at City-run vaccination clinics.
If you are also receiving a COVID-19 vaccine at the appointment, review the COVID-19 pre-screening questionnaire before attending:
Book an appointment at TPHbookings.ca
Learn more about clinic locations, hours of operations, parking and accessibility options
Please refer to the School Immunization Program – Student & Parent Checklist for Grade 7 & 8 Students or the School Immunization Program – Parent & Student Checklist for Secondary Schools.
*Completing the Vaccine Consent form:
Step 1: Student Information
All fields should be filled out including:
Step 2: Student Vaccination History
Step 3: Health History
Step 4: Consent for vaccination
Please note that consent forms submitted to Toronto Public Health are valid for 2 years. If you have already signed a consent form within the past two years another consent form is not required.
Please refer to Student Immunization Program Checklist for more information.
If you received hepatitis B, human papillomavirus (HPV), and meningococcal vaccines from a health care provider other than Toronto Public Health, please report these vaccination(s) to Toronto Public Health online:
Vaccination records for meningococcal vaccines must be reported under the Immunization of School Pupils Act in order for students to continue attending school in Ontario.
Reporting vaccinations with hepatitis B and HPV vaccines is not required, but helps your child or student in a number of ways, such as:
