Anna Ewens
Headteacher
I am extremely proud to be the Headteacher of Northern Primary School. I have a passion for ensuring that all children receive an education which is engaging and exciting and which gives children a thirst for learning. I started at Northern as Deputy Headteacher in 2019 and began my journey as Headteacher here in September 2022. I have previously been an Assistant Headteacher at a large, two form school and have experience of teaching all age ranges across the primary phase. I am a very proud mum and love spending time with my family as well as my two beautiful dogs!
Joanne Ramsbottom
Parent Governor
I am mum to two children in Year 6 and I work as a primary school teacher in Rochdale. I have worked in all age ranges across the primary phase, as SENCo and also Key Stage One Leader. I have extensive knowledge of what is important in a primary school setting and it is essential to me that all children are receiving the best possible education in a safe and nurturing environment. I particularly love the way in which Northern provides lots of enrichment activities out of school. The Autumn Festival and School discos are a huge success as well as the wide variety of clubs on offer for our children.
I love spending time with my family, enjoying days out and holidays!
