School Suspensions

Huron Perth Public Health (HPPH) collects, screens and maintains immunization records for all children who attend school or a licensed daycare in the region.

If your child doesn't have a complete immunization record with all required vaccines, your child may be suspended from school or daycare.

Immunization notice

Huron Perth Public Health works with parents and caregivers to update records and arrange immunizations. Before a school suspension, HPPH will notify you by mail that your child is missing required vaccines from their record. This notice will list the vaccine(s) that we don't have on record.

If you receive a notification form, you need to:

• Report any missing vaccinations
• Get any missing vaccinations
• Return the form to your school or HPPH office.

Immunization exemptions

You may be able to get an exemption from immunization for your child.
