Petition · past parliament

All teachers in the UK should be given access to a free flu jab

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

To protect teachers from flu and reduce teacher absence form school.
Other frontline workers are eligible for a free flu jab but not teachers or staff who work in schools. The risk from Covid and flu is going to be an ongoing problem this winter. I want staff working in schools to be protected.
