[Guidance
A cover sheet should be no more than two sides of A4, single line spacing, left justified and Arial 11 should be used
throughout. The cover sheet should put across the key points of the report and we usually advise people to write the
cover sheet with the thought in mind that if the member of the Council had limited time and therefore could only read
the cover sheet, will the cover sheet highlight the key points to the member of the Council sufficiently enough for them
to understand what is being asked of them?
If the accompanying report is very brief and clear you may not be required to complete the key points section above. If
you would like advice on this, please send your draft report to universitycouncil@warwick.ac.uk in plenty of time before
the draft report deadline for the attention of the Assistant Registrars (Governance) so that whoever is supporting the
meeting of the Council can review it and give appropriate advice.
If your report is a summary of a Committee meeting, please use the ‘Committee Reporting’ cover sheet template.
The Assistant Registrars (Governance) will assign and type in the report and agenda numbers once they receive your
final report. Any questions, please contact the Assistant Registrars (Governance) via universitycouncil@warwick.ac.uk
in the first instance.
Information contained in [ ] should be deleted or overtyped.]
