We have had an excellent partnership with Jigsaw Learning since August 2018, and the timeliness and quality of supports provided to division-level and school-based staff since that time has been outstanding! One of our most recent endeavours with JL has been the “School Collaborative Response Formative Feedback”, which is a detailed 3-phase process that involves a full-day site-based visit to observe Collaborative Response in action throughout the school.

While we have had the opportunity to work with Kurtis Hewson at the divisional level in terms of understanding the big picture structures of Collaborative Response, it was his visit to our school that refined the daily processes and procedures that we needed to get the most out of planning and team meetings.

Kurtis, Lorna and the entire Jigsaw Learning team consistently provide transformative support that that is rigorous, concrete and tailored to our context. Jigsaw's commitment to our students, families and communities is evident in their professional and caring approach to all that they do for and with our staff.

Working with the Jigsaw team has been a wonderful experience. The opportunity to receive feedback regarding our work with regards to Collaborative Response at the school has provided us with the opportunity to gain clarity and outline some potential next steps for our school.

Kurtis Hewson visited our school to provide feedback in regard to Collaborative Response. It was a very wonderful experience for our staff and our admin team. He spent time with individual teachers, and in our CR meeting / SST meeting, and provided very relevant and timely feedback. I look forward to continuing with Jigsaw as we continue on our journey.
