How finalists qualify

The organiser decides who reaches the final, usually through earlier rounds at school or regional level. When the finalists are announced, each finalist's family receives a Finalist Pass.

For this competition's own rules, ask your school or the organiser.

What to bring

  • The Finalist Pass, on a phone or printed
  • Whatever your category's rules ask for, such as a project, a robot or a poster
  • Anything your school or the organiser asks you to bring

Get your Finalist Pass

  1. After the finalists are announced, the school or the organiser sends each family its pass link, usually on WhatsApp.
  2. Open the link. There is no account to create and no app to install.
  3. Lost the message? Find the pass with its code.

Questions from families

Do we need an account?

No account is needed. On iPhone, alerts need the page added to your Home Screen.

When are the results published?

Each category's results appear on this page once its judges' scores are signed off and the organiser publishes them. A finalist's own result also reaches their Finalist Pass.

Can families come and watch?

That depends on the venue and the organiser, so ask your school. The venue and the programme appear on this page once they are published.

We lost the pass link. What now?

Ask the school or the organiser to send it again, or open the pass with the code from the message.
