Today is the last chance to sign up to this year’s UK Bebras Challenge in computational thinking. If you’ve signed up before you should find your school and co-ordinator in the drop-down menu, if not you’d need to register (and note there may be a few days before registration is confirmed particularly if lots of people are signing up today).

📝 Sign up as a teacher
Closing date is today Monday 28th October 2024

Your students can also have a go of the practice challenges from previous years (no account needed for that).

What is the UK Bebras Challenge?

“The Bebras Challenge introduces computational thinking to students worldwide. This exciting challenge takes place in schools, under the supervision of teachers, over a two-week period every November. Last year, over 3 million students from more than 80 countries participated!

In the UK, the challenge is open to all young people aged 6 to 19. Each participant has 45 minutes to tackle a series of interactive tasks, designed to encourage logical thinking and problem-solving skills appropriate for their age group. The challenge is conducted online, and tasks are marked automatically by our competition system.

The tasks are designed to allow every student the opportunity to showcase their potential, whether they excel in maths or computing, or not.“
