Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The primary outcome is the difference in three dose HPV immunisation completion rates between intervention and control groups at the end of the two years of the study. Student vaccination status in each of the participating schools will be provided by the councils and/or State Health Department at the end of the school year. In addition, this data will be also be collected from the HPV Vaccine Register which will be provided as coverage at the level of the schools.[Two years]

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
1) the difference in scores of the HAVIQ (HPV Adolescent Vaccine Intervention Questionnaire) between students in intervention and control schools pre dose 1, pre dose 2, pre dose 3. This scale evaluates HPV and HPV vaccination knowledge and attitudes, HPV vaccination decision-making involvement, and HPV vaccine self-efficacy; [Two years];2) the difference between the time to vaccinate students in intervention and control groups, and the difference in proportion of consent form returns regardless of decision between intervention and control schools. This will be assessed using implementation logs kept by immunisation nurses that record how vaccination takes. In addition, consent form returns will be compared across intervention and control schools. [Two years]
