Jigsaw Consult

Jigsaw began with some late night conversations among friends - a small group of like-minded people wanting to use our skills to bring about positive change in our complex world. Each of us was already very involved in international development and humanitarian response. We shared - and still share - a deep conviction that evidence building is vital to disrupt and strengthen the education sector. 

Fast-forward a decade and Jigsaw is an established and trusted provider of research, evaluation and strategy within the education sector. Everything we do is focused on using rigorous evidence to bring about lasting change in education. In the lowest income countries, more than 80% of children aged 10 cannot read a simple text, 250 million children never go to school: we are in the midst of a global learning crisis.  

We are committed to using our skills to bend the curve of progress as much as possible. No single team can do this on all fronts - and that is why we specialise in technical areas where we can have maximum impact. We are driven by our mission and are a certified social enterprise: we are in this for the long haul.  

In addition to the clients we serve, we have long-term partnerships with a small number of organisations including Refugee Education UK and UNHCR and EdTech Hub.
