The proposal, which is awaiting approval from government and NHS officials, would aim to vaccinate teachers during the February half term.

Under the plan both Oswestry School and Shrewsbury School would become vaccination centres for teachers.

This scheme has been drawn up by two academy chains, a private school group, and the Headmasters’ and Headmistresses’ Conference (HMC), which represents schools including Eton and Harrow.
