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

Our next Artist of the Week is Maisey in Year 11. She has created these lovely pieces of art work for her current Year 11 exam project. She is looking at the starting point `books` and has produced these pencil responses. Well done Maisey.

Our Year 12 students enjoyed an informative visit to Ramsdens HQ.
They explored a range of departments, learned about different career pathways, gained valuable advice on applications, and developed practical skills in identifying gold and silver hallmarks. The highlight of the visit was meeting the CEO and hearing first-hand insights into the business. A fantastic opportunity to experience the world of work in action.

An outstanding performance from this Year 9–10 girls squad, securing victories over Cundall Manor, Acklam Grange, Kings Academy, Fulford School and Richmond to lift the North Yorkshire title.
Across five matches, the team amassed nearly 500 runs. Every player contributed to runs scored, wickets taken, and crucial moments in the field. A genuine all-round squad effort.
Next up: the Durham Schools competition.
