You can make an appointment for your child’s vaccine through the National Booking Service: nhs.uk/coronavirus or by calling 119 free of charge.
Currently there are three vaccination clinics offering the COVID-19 vaccine to this age group in Haringey:
- Lordship Lane Health Centre, 239 Lordship Lane, N17 6AA – every Monday 9am – 4pm
- Bounds Green Group Practice, Gordon Road, N11 2PF 5-11 year old clinic each Friday 4-5pm
- Hornsey Central Neigbourhood Health Centre, 151 Park Road, London N8 8JD, 7 days a week, 9am-6pm
Some walk-ins are available (except at Lordship Lane) where 5-11-year-olds as well as older siblings, or family members, can be vaccinated together at the same time. Simply check the walk-in finder website: www.nhs.uk/grab-a-jab before attending to check clinic timings.
Children aged 5-11 with no other underlying health conditions will be offered two paediatric (child) doses of the vaccine, with at least 12 weeks between doses. A paediatric dose is smaller than doses given to those aged 12 and over.
A guide to Covid-19 vaccination for parents of children aged 5-11 has been produced. This can be accessed here

As one of ten local authorities in England with high rates of serious youth violence (SYV), Haringey has been allocated £1.28m by the DfE over three years to deliver interventions for 10–14-year-olds. The Haringey SAFE Taskforce is leading this work. Most secondary school Heads are members of the Taskforce, which is chaired by the Direct of Children’s Services, and the project will be independently evaluated.
The Board will commission targeted interventions to work with young people – usually in school – to address behaviour, improve attendance, reduce exclusions, and reduce the risk of individuals failing to enter education, employment, or training.
We recently completed a strategic needs analysis and its thoroughness was commended by the Department for Education. A key theme was that serious violence is mostly committed by boys and they are most often the victims. The project will submit its proposals to the DfE on 24 June and the interventions proposed include:
Expanding the primary transition outreach pilot project from the Haringey Learning Partnership to target boys aged 10-11 at risk of exclusion and supporting them to have a successful transition to senior school.
Expanding the secondary outreach project from the Haringey Learning Partnership for young people at risk of exclusion aged 11-14 with a focus on cognitive behavioural approaches which are effective.
Expanding the successful social workers in schools (SWIS) model to schools that do not currently have social workers and have been identified in our strategic needs analysis as having significant number of young people at risk of serious youth violence. The taskforce will also be reviewing options for an additional intervention.
Once our plans have been signed-off we will provide further updates as we gear up towards implementation in September. For all enquires contact John Webster, Project Coordinator. john.webster@haringey.gov.uk

- IDSR release June 6 2022 – Removal of Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) dataFollowing the reforms to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and changes to the administration and moderation of EYFS profile data, Ofsted has taken the decision that the EYFS profile will no longer be included in the Inspection Data Summary Report (IDSR). This is in line with action taken by the Department of Education for their Analyse School Performance (ASP) products. As of Monday 6 June, the IDSR no longer contains EYFS profile data.
The DfE is seeking views on ASP, so they can better understand users’ needs. To this end, a survey is available on the ASP website.
Haringey Council is proposing to up-date and revise its home-school transport policy. This will introduce a more detailed account of how we make decisions in the interests of transparency and to ensure our stakeholders are as informed as possible.
Most children and young people who require transport assistance to school will continue to benefit from the existing provision from Transport for London. We will continue to provide specialist assistance for children and young people with SEND or those whose family circumstances mean that they require additional support to access education.
The policy will also ensure that there is less confusion and misinformation in the community. Read more about the changes https://bit.ly/SENDHomeSchoolTransportConsultation
We would like to hear your views about these changes, please complete the consultation form below before Sunday 31 July 2022.
We are also hosting several events to discuss these changes, places can be booked through Eventbrite
