The Times Spelling Bee 2011 is open to full-time pupils who turn 12 years old between September 1, 2010, and August 31, 2011. Schools in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are welcome to participate.
We are inviting schools to put forward a team of three pupils (plus a reserve) to take part in live spelling contests with other schools up and down the country.
The deadline for schools to enter is Friday, December 10, 2010. Schools will then need to submit the names of their team members by Friday, March 11, 2011.
