Immunisation requirements for enrolment in NSW Early Childhood services and schools depend on the level of education.
Children enrolled in approved Early Childhood services (preschools and long day care centres) must be fully vaccinated and provide approved proof of immunisation.
Schools can enrol both vaccinated and unvaccinated students. Schools must request an approved AIR Immunisation History Statement when they enrol a student.
Early Childhood services and schools must:
- keep an immunisation register.
- notify their local Public Health Unit in certain circumstances when there is a vaccine preventable disease.
