In order to ensure that the contests are fair, a minimum class size of 5 students is required to take part. There is a maximum class size in the system of 40 students.
Don’t worry if you’re teaching a small class, there’s still a way you can participate in the event. If you have less than 5 students, you are able to combine classes for the contest period. You can look at our guide here on how to move students between classes.
We should warn you it’s not wise to move your students between classes during the contest period. This will reset any contest score you have achieved so far, and might prevent your students from continuing with the contest.
Note: Class scores are based on the class average so every class, no matter what size, has the same chance of winning.
