10. Governance

The implementation and effectiveness of this Policy will be monitored through the EHE Governance arrangements, which sit within the Children Not In School Governance Group. This is a Rotherham Council led multi agency group that meets termly and offers strategic oversight to the work of a number of key services, including the EHE team.

A termly statutory return is made to the Department for Education in relation to the number of children known to be EHE in the area.

A yearly update report will be provided to Rotherham Council’s Children and Young People’s Scrutiny Committee.
