Primary schools in Bow E3

[SarfEasticated]

Hey y'all just posting this for a friend who is hoping to move near Olga Primary School in E3. Do any of you have any experience of that school or could recommend another close by? Maybe Old Ford or Malmesbury?
Thanks in advance :)

I have friends with children at Olga, and they think it's fantastic; it certainly seems like it from what I know of the school. Having said that, I think they have just appointed a new head, so a lot could change. It's one of the few schools round here with no uniform. I will try and find out some up-to-date information.

I should add, Olga is expanding from one to three-form entry from Sept 16.

Thanks Tethers your information is much appreciated.

Bumping for more info :)

Is it possible that there aren't many Mumsnetters in Bow? I have assured my friend this will be a wellspring of considered information... don't leave me hanging...

Have you tried the MN Tower Hamlets site?

No I haven't Tethers will nip over there now.

Malmesbury was in special measures until recently. There are two new schools in the area: Bonner Mile End and the Solebay Primary. The former has an outstanding sister school in Bethnal Green that is very popular.

Hi there. Just wanted to bump this thread. Thinking of moving into the area and would be really grateful for any info on the primary schools. Particularly olga and malmesbury.

Thanks!
