The province has updated the immunization requirements for the 2014/15 school year to include new mandatory immunizations and dose requirements that align with changes to Ontario's publicly-funded Immunization Program.

All students attending primary or secondary school this fall will need to have proof of immunization against three more diseases: meningococcal disease, whooping cough and—for children born in 2010 or later—chickenpox. This is in addition to updated dose requirements for tetanus, diphtheria, polio and mumps immunizations. Requirements for measles and rubella immunizations have not changed.
