WHAT WILL I BE TESTED ON?
Expect challenges related to the Contest sponsors, with a variety of tasks across different topics. There is a module topic library here which provides some ideas of what might be in modules. This is an educational resource rather than a guide to go by. Every team will also receive tips and tricks the week before your Regional Final.
WHO CAN ENTER?
The competition is open to primary school students between the ages of 8-13 (age as of 1 February 2027). A maximum of FIVE teams from each school and there is a maximum of 35 teams per event. Placeholder teams are no longer allowed due to too many withdrawals before the event, and if placeholder teams are entered they will be removed. Please see conditions of entry: Conditions of Entry
