Jigsaw Primary Pupil Referral Unit

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 25 April 2023

Jigsaw Pupil Referral Unit is an oasis for the pupils who come to this welcoming school. All pupils have unique special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Leaders have created an environment which supports pupils to begin to learn to love education. Pupils excel at this highly ambitious school. From the moment pupils arrive, leaders and staff work as a cohesive team to provide the pupils with a world-class education. Staff strive to find ways to enhance pupils' lives, including through the delivery of an individualised 'gaps-led' curriculum. Jigsaw Pupil Referral Unit is transforming pupils' experiences of education. All staff set remarkable expectations for pupils' achievement and behaviour. This is lived and breathed every single day. Pupils respond positively because they clearly understand these expectations. From their starting points, pupils make praiseworthy progress with their academic studies and their behaviour. This ensures that pupils are ready for the next step that they take in their education. Pupils know that staff care for them. Warm, trusting relationships exist between pupils and staff. Staff help pupils manage their behaviour so that they do not impact other pupils in school. This helps pupils feel secure and safe in school. On the rare occasion that bullying occurs, leaders are thorough in their response.
