No statutory information to include

There isn't a set format or list of contents for the SEND report to governors, or a set frequency for how often to report to them.

The governing board should agree with school leaders on how data will be provided, which "will help it stay focused on its strategic functions while being mindful of the impact on workload". This is set out in section 3.2 of the maintained schools governance guide.

The SEND Code of Practice doesn't specifically say what governors should be told about SEND.
