All students entering government or private schools in the Cayman Islands for the first time are required to have health screenings.

The screening includes growth and development assessment, screening for vision and hearing, a dental evaluation, administering necessary immunisations and obtaining a student’s personal medical history.

Vaccines will be offered to children whose immunisations are not up-to-date, and health screening certificates will then be issued, which will be required to enter the chosen school.

The Education Department mandates that these screenings must be completed before the new school year begins in September.

Schedule your child’s health screening today by calling our office at 949-2970, or visit our website at www.thechildrensclinic.ky to book your appointment online.
