Macmillan Academy is an 11-19 school and sixth form in Middlesbrough. It is part of Endeavour Academies Trust. At Macmillan we believe in the transformative power of education for all of our young people. Our motto ‘inspiring students to succeed’ is at the heart of what we do; we want our students to achieve and succeed academically but we also want them to succeed personally. It is our aim to ensure that all students have access to a wide range of experiences so that they leave us as well-qualified, well-rounded young people ready to make their mark on the world.
Alongside our students our staff are our greatest asset. Staff retention is exceptionally high and staff wellbeing is a priority for leaders at the academy. We have staff who always ‘go the extra mile’ for students and are always supportive of each other. We have a comprehensive training programme so that all staff can develop in their time with us.Â

This week, we were joined at the academy by Middlesbrough Football Club Foundation, in partnership with surgeons from the NHS, to deliver workshops for young people focused on raising awareness around knife crime. The workshop was interactive and educational in supporting young people to remain safe and understand the consequences and impacts. A highlight for students was the role play involving stopping someone`s leg from bleeding out.

What’s a mentor?
