The academy will provide the local community with the benefits of a new state-of-the-art building.
The open evenings will take place on 23rd and 30th September, at The Riverside Stadium, home of Middlesbrough FC.
The events will begin at 5:30pm and give the parents of current Year 6 children the opportunity to meet a range of staff from 台湾swag and discuss the education they could provide their children.
