With the new school year upon us, we are busy preparing to launch the 2010-11 Spelling Bee Championship. To create a level playing field for new and existing players on the website, all player scores will be reset to zero on September 6. Players who registered for the 2009-10 game will be able to view their final ranking on their personal profile page.

One thousand schools took part in The Times’s second Spelling Bee championship. We would like to congratulate Newport Girls’ High School from Shropshire who have been crowned The Times Spelling Bee Champions 2010.
"Spelling is important, but learning to spell can be frustrating perplexing and bewildering. Our aim through The Times Spelling Bee is to help to make spelling fun. I’m very excited to be launching the 2010 championship and wish all the teams taking part the best of luck. I hope your school will take the opportunity to enter a team and fingers crossed that I might see you all at the 2010 championship Grand Final."
