The nutshell as a Governance tool It presents a one-page overview of SEND in a school for governors It is effectively the SEND report for the SEND Governor and all governors It s the starting point for an informed governance discussion; starting with Why? It can be easily updated for each termly governors meeting
The nutshell as an External Review tool It summarises SEND in a school for an external evaluator It is useful on a telephone call It is useful as a starting point for discussions during an external evaluation It demonstrates a strategic understanding of SEND and will support a consistent narrative and joined-up approach
