Every classroom is different. Every child brings their own strengths, experiences and needs. For children with SEND/ALN, feeling safe, understood and included isn’t just important, it’s what makes learning possible.

Every classroom is different. Every child brings their own strengths, experiences and needs. For children with SEND/ALN, feeling safe, understood and included isn’t just important, it’s what makes learning possible.

That’s why inclusion sits at the heart of every Jigsaw programme. Not as an afterthought or an add-on, but as a founding principle: inclusive by design.

Jigsaw PSHE/PSE (3 to 16) and RE/RVE (3 to 11) have been built from the ground up with inclusive classrooms in mind. Every programme supports pupils, including those with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and additional learning needs (ALN), through:

Clear, consistent lesson structures that reduce cognitive load
Calm, predictable routines that support emotional regulation
Emotional literacy woven throughout — helping pupils recognise, name and manage their feelings
Language and content that is accessible and inclusive
Varied modes of presentation and dual coding to engage all learners
A spiral curriculum and spaced retrieval that build knowledge progressively over time

This is what inclusive by design means in Jigsaw programmes: a strong, evidence-based foundation that works for every learner, in every classroom. And because that foundation is already there, teachers are free to do what they do best, respond to the children in their class.

Adaptable in practice

Supporting teachers, every step of the way Teaching PSHE/PSE and RE/RVE to a wide range of learners requires a clear, well-structured foundation. Jigsaw is designed to support confident Quality First Teaching and build adaptive teaching practice manageably. In practice, that means teachers can:

Adapt lessons to meet the needs of their pupils
Provide scaffolds so every child can access the lesson
Adjust pace, language and delivery where needed
Use resources flexibly within a clear and supportive structure
Create classrooms where pupils feel included and able to participate, even with sensitive topics

So teachers are never choosing between a carefully planned, age-appropriate curriculum and responding to individual needs. With Jigsaw, you can have both. And crucially, no teacher has to figure this out alone. Every Jigsaw subscription includes access to:
Step-by-step guidance, knowledge organisers and background information,
Ongoing, on-demand CPD and training,
Support from the Jigsaw team including expert mentors and regional advisors
Over time, this builds something that goes beyond any single lesson: a growing toolkit of adaptive strategies, and the confidence to use them. That confidence extends beyond the classroom and makes inclusion work at a whole-school level.

Jigsaw PSHE 3-11

A whole-school approach

Inclusion works best when it's consistent, not dependent on individual teachers or isolated lessons. Jigsaw supports schools to create a consistent environment where every child – particularly those with SEND/ALN - experiences the same sense of safety, belonging and understanding, wherever they are in the school. In practice, Jigsaw helps schools build:
A shared language around emotions, relationships and wellbeing. So pupils hear and use the same words across classrooms, playgrounds and beyond - paired and group activities encourage teamwork and empathy in safe, scaffolded ways.
Emotional literacy and self-regulation - mindfulness practices help pupils recognise emotions and respond calmly.
Consistent routines and structures that give all children, particularly those with SEND/ALN, the predictability and security they need to engage
A spiral curriculum in PSHE/PSE that revisits and deepens learning progressively, and flexible enquiry sequences in RE/RVE that schools can shape to meet their context and their pupils' needs
Joined-up practice across staff teams. So teachers, support staff and leaders share the same understanding and approach
Over time, that creates a calmer, more inclusive school environment and a stronger sense of belonging for every child.
