Improving outcomes for children and youth will require schools to form links with community agencies and organizations to address a range of in-school and out-of-school factors that affect learning and development. The Annenberg Institute for School Reform calls this idea a “smart education system.” In England, it is national policy. This issue of Voices in Urban Education looks in depth at one local British authority that has been remarkably successful across a range of health, social, educational, and economic indicators: the East London borough of Tower Hamlets.
