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 Pearl in Year 8!
As part of their homework, Year 8 students were challenged to create artwork inspired by the theme of feathers, using drawing, painting or pattern-making.
Pearl has taken a wonderfully creative approach, using feathers and ink to collage and print this abstract, textile-inspired design.

Last week we received an offer of a donation of laptop bags from TISA (The Investing and Savings Alliance). We took them up on their kind offer and on Wednesday, Elysia Evans visited the academy to drop them off.
What we thought was laptop bags turned out to be a whole lot more! Reams of copier paper, envelopes, pens, office equipment and so much more were received by Mrs Hill and the ladies in the admin office with absolute delight. Everything that has been donated will be put to good use and the academy can`t thank TISA enough for their kind offer.

Our Year 8 & 9 girls got their County Cup campaign off to a fantastic start last Thursday, beating Our Lady & St Bede 5–3 in an exciting and competitive first-round clash.
A huge shoutout to Lacey, who was absolutely amazing and played a massive part in the team’s performance.
Well done, girls, what a result!

Macmillan 3–5 Nunthorpe
A very competitive and entertaining game saw Nunthorpe come out as worthy winners. Goals for Macmillan came from Ethan, Theo and Bentley.
The King`s Academy 2–5 Macmillan
The following day, the team travelled to The King`s Academy and came away with a well-earned victory in another high-scoring affair.
A fantastic effort from all the players across both games. Well done, Y8 A Team!
