Your link is to a news story from Sept 3 about the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI). As of Nov 15 the JCVI is pointing out that "the population level impact of vaccinating this age group has not been considered in the development of this advice." So they did not factor in the spread of the virus by young people.
They also say "The available data indicates that the clinical manifestations of myocarditis following vaccination are typically self-limiting and resolve within a short time."
And furthermore "First doses of COVID-19 vaccine are currently being offered to children and young people aged 12 to 15 years."
