About Canary Wharf College, Glenworth
If you're a parent in Tower Hamlets weighing up primary options, the numbers at Canary Wharf College, Glenworth speak loudly. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering responses from September 2024 to September 2025, 83% of the 93 respondents said they would recommend the school. That's a strong signal, and it's backed by specific praise: 94% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy, and 87% felt the same about their child doing well. The school is clearly popular with families, and the admissions data for 2025/26 confirms that demand outstrips supply. With 161 applications for just 44 places, the oversubscription ratio sits at 3.66, and 40 of those 44 offers went to first-preference families. That kind of competition tells you this is a school local parents are actively choosing, not just settling for.
