<p>Preparation to implement the extension of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination
programme to boys is progressing well. NHS England has carried out a series of assurance
surveys to assess the preparedness of the system for the extension of the HPV vaccination
programme to boys, specifically covering the service provision, delivery, data collection
and coverage. The outcome of that exercise has shown that roll-out is on track for
the 2019/20 academic year.</p><p>Public Health England is undertaking research with
families and parents of young boys to ensure that we are able to communicate the benefits
of the HPV vaccine and ensure parity with the girls’ programme.</p>
