Moderna has been approved for jabs in children aged six to 11 by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
It will still need to be considered by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JVCI) as to whether it will be offered to the age group.
The jab, also known as Spikevax, is already been approved for children over 12. The European Medicines Agency gave it the green light for kids aged six to 11 on March 2, the Mirror reported.
