Meet the team

Hello, I'm Mr Melson!

I love to see  students progress both academically and non-academically as rounded people and future citizens.  When not in school, I can be found climbing, at the gym, wearing velvet jackets, or spending time with my wife and 2 teenage children.

Hi, I'm Ms Kroeller!

I have worked at Outwood Academy City for fabulous 11 years. I love developing teaching and learning, listening to students about how we can continue to develop their learning experiences. I love reading and poodles!

Hello, I'm Ms Hawkins!

I have been working at City for two years and absolutely love the fact we are a family. My favourite thing is helping students, even the most reluctant readers, find books that they love! 

Hi! I'm Mr Mallory!

I have been at City for just over a year. I love to see students unlock and demonstrate their potential in our Academy and look forward to help support our new students to do this. In my spare time I love visiting theme parks and riding rollercoasters. I am a massive sports fan and love Formula 1, Cricket, Darts and Football. 

Hi, I'm Ms Simpson! 

I've been working at Outwood 8 years this year! I love football and support Sheffield United. I enjoy doing trips with the year groups and getting to know the students that I work with.

Hi I'm Miss Meakes, I work at Outwood City as the SEND Officer. This means that I support students to overcome barriers in school and reach their full potential. In my spare time, I enjoy baking, reading and walking. I am also a Brownie Leader for Girlguiding UK. Please feel free to pop into the Inclusion Office in September if you need any help 

Hello I am Mr Colliver! 

I have worked at Outwood Academy City for nearly 20 years in a number of different roles. I am passionate about seeing students develop socially, my role as Lead Learning manager is to support all students academically and behaviourally. I work closely with the inclusion coordinator, attendance and the Leadership team to improve student behaviour, attendance and outcomes. Day to day, I work tirelessly to help students be the best they can be. I am a massive advocate of trips, events and international tours which I’m often involved in organising providing opportunities for students and their families. No doubt I will have worked with a close family member over the years maybe your parents?! I love watching Sheffield United and a few years ago I tried to kick the football around myself also!
