We are incredibly grateful to Kurtis Hewson and Jigsaw Learning for supporting the staff at Swan Hills School as we begin our journey with Collaborative Response.

Kurtis facilitated two Collaborative Team Meetings, one with our Division I/II team and another with our Division III/IV team. His expertise, knowledge, and willingness to share his experience and resources were very well received by our staff.

One of the most valuable takeaways was Kurtis helping our teachers recognize the wealth of experience, knowledge, and support that already exists within our own building.

Jigsaw Learning has completely transformed how our team operates. They helped us streamline our daily processes and, most importantly, revolutionized our meetings. We now have a clear, structured framework that ensures every meeting is efficient and purposeful. What I appreciate most is how this framework values every person in the room, actively drawing out unique insights to solve complex issues.

Jigsaw Learning provides administrators and educators a framework in which to support all the students in their schools. An awareness of how to effectively meet the needs of those that are entrusted to our care is provided with a lens that benefits the entire learning community!

Having Lorna join us for a CTM and classroom observation was a great experience as an administrative team. The feedback provided, included reference to the things that we are doing well in our school, and areas of opportunity, that with continued focus will ensure our success in supporting our learners. This descriptive feedback provided us with a sense of accomplishment, as it recognized the great things we are already doing to support the CRM framework as a staff.

I have engaged with Collaborative Response and the team of Kurtis and Lorna in various capacities throughout my years in education. As we navigate the challenges of a brand-new staff, their support and feedback have been instrumental in helping our administrative team build a robust Collaborative Response structure from the ground up.
