🌟 Ofsted says we’re Outstanding – again! 🌟 So proud that, for the second time in a row, Ofsted has rated Islington’s Children’s Services ‘Outstanding’ in all areas—putting us among the best in London! This recognition highlights the incredible work of our dedicated teams, who are making a real difference in children’s lives every day. Ofsted’s praise comes on the heels of the inspection of the council’s Youth Justice Service, which earned a score of 34 out of 36, the best result in London and the third-highest in all of England and Wales. Islington is now one of only four boroughs in London to be rated ‘Outstanding’ for both services. Read more here: https://orlo.uk/vXRPO
