"The task facing the LEA has been a formidable one, but to a remarkable extent
has been successfully accomplished... Arrangements are working well. There is
a real consensus around both the urgent need to raise standards, the strategy
to do this, and each parties responsibilities within the new arrangements. The
clear division of roles has focused minds and energies... The tide has turned
in Islington." LEA Inspection Report, Ofsted, 2001.
