Create an account

If your school is already registered to run the UK Bebras Challenge:

1. Find your school name in the drop down list at the first stage of registration.
2. At the the second stage, you will see a list of existing school coordinators including the name of the main coordinator. The main coordinator will be able to approve your account once you have completed the request.
3. If the main coordinator is no longer at the school, please let us know and we will carry out the approval. 

If your school has not been previously registered for the UK Bebras Challenge or there is no main coordinator, you will automatically assume this role. When you register, your account will be inactive until we manually verify your teacher status by contacting your school. 

Coordinators handbook

The coordinators handbook is your essential guide to getting your school ready to participate in the UK Bebras challenge. You can download it from the documents menu of the admin site when you log in.

Enrol your students

Student accounts are automatically deleted at the end of each academic year, so please do not enrol and students until September. You do not need to set up student accounts for them to practise. They only need their login details when they are ready to take the official challenge. 

To enrol your students, you simply create their accounts. For each student we just need their name and the level at which they will participate. Students are not able to create their own accounts.

To simplify the process of enroling students, you can upload a spreadsheet. Detailed instructions can be found on the admin site when you sign in.

We highly recommend enroling all students within a year group. This is because one of the primary aims of the challenge is to identify aptitude for computational thinking. The tasks are presented as engaging puzzles, starting with relatively easy ones to encourage participation from all students. During the timed challenge, only a few students manage to complete all the problems. However, with practice, most students find that they can tackle problems that initially seemed very challenging. We encourage you to enrol the entire school!
