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 are looking to appoint an inspirational and enthusiastic Head of Department to lead our geography department from September 2026. We are seeking an individual who has a proven track record of innovative approaches to teaching and someone who can continue to raise achievement in the department.

Over the last two days, three groups of Year 9 students have completed our first Bronze expedition of the season.
Day one saw them walking in perfect conditions from Pinchinthorpe to Kildale, finishing with a beautiful sunset as the backdrop while cooking dinner in the evening.
Day two brought much more challenging conditions on the walk to Clay Bank, but the students stayed upbeat and showed great resilience to successfully complete their expedition. Well done to everyone involved.
