An “amazing” former head teacher who dedicated her life to helping her school’s community has died aged 68. Sue Crowson tragically passed away a few weeks ago at Worthington Lake care home in Wigan, leaving former colleagues and pupils devastated by the news.
The former head teacher ran Horton Mill primary school for 26 years, taking on the role when the school first opened in 1990 before retiring from teaching in 2016.
From a very young age, Sue knew she wanted to be a teacher, setting up her teddies in her bedroom with books for desks - even stealing one of her older sister Carol’s school books to make a register for them.
Her three children, Chris, Amy and Hari Bans, remember their mum’s hard work getting Horton Mill ready to open, taking them round the half-finished site, lugging their dining room chairs to the unfurnished school for interviews, and searching for books that represented the community, featuring characters with disabilities, people from different ethnicities, and even making sure there were plenty of texts in Urdu to help the local community.
