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.
Our next Artist of the Week is Ruta A from Year 7.
As part of their recent project, Year 7 were asked to create an artist transcript and research study inspired by the work of Vincent van Gogh. Ruta has produced a thoughtful piece that reflects both careful research and creative interpretation.
Well done, Ruta.

A huge result for the Year 7 & 8 girls` cricket team as they won the qualifying tournament.
Victories over Egglescliffe, St Joseph’s and Belmont in the group stages set up a semi-final win against St Leonard’s. In a tense final against Durham Johnston, the team held their nerve to prevent the 12 runs needed in the final over. Next up: the Durham Finals in March, with a North Yorkshire competition coming up next week.
