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.
Follow us on our social media to stay up to date with all the exciting things that are going on within our academy.
We`re delighted to have renewed our Green Flag Award with Distinction for the third year running!
This achievement reflects the hard work and dedication of our Eco-Squad, Eco-Council and wider school community, whose commitment to sustainability continues to make a real difference. Thank you to everyone involved in helping create a greener future for Macmillan.

Year 10 have been putting their skills to the test with the Teacake Challenge, creating teacakes that look like they’ve fallen straight out of a restaurant kitchen.
The presentation, creativity and attention to detail have been fantastic.
Well done, Year 10!
