Outwood Academy Riverside
Outwood Academy Riverside is a secondary school in Middlesbrough, England. It has a mixed intake of boys and girls ages 11–16 with a comprehensive admissions policy.
The school opened as a free school in September 2020, operated by Outwood Grange Academies Trust. It initially had 100 year 7 pupils and was based at temporary premises while constructing a dedicated site in Middlehaven. Originally planned to be ready in 2023, construction suffered delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic and contract re-tendering. By the summer of 2023, the school had moved into a second temporary premises. It received a new completion date of 2026 and began seeking a third temporary site capable of accommodating more pupils. Lack of bus transportation and strangers outside the school were concerns.
