Worldwise Online Quiz

What better way to enthuse your students about geography than by giving them the opportunity to win a free weekend of field studies and the chance to compete in an international geography competition?

Worldwise incorporates a range of fun free-of-charge activities, and the more you and your students do, the greater your chances of winning a place at our Worldwise Challenge weekends funded by the Field Studies Council.

  • Local Quiz: Our popular face-to-face quiz for teams of three (Years 8-10) - compete within your school or against others in your area
  • Geography Awareness Week: A designated week in June each year for primary and secondary (including Post-16) students to undertake a range of activities on a geographical theme
  • Online Quizzes: Online quiz questions in various formats for primary and secondary students accessed via the Worldwise website
  • My Places: Primary and secondary (including Post-16) students upload images with accompanying text to explain why the place they have chosen is significant to them

Please note: some Worldwise activities require students to log in. As a teacher, you must first register your school on the site - you can do this here. After this has been completed students will be able to set up their own accounts - they can do this here. Registration is free and will give students access to their 'My Places', previous quiz scores and a printable Worldwise certificate.

Visit the Worldwise website to find out more or contact Richard Gill if you have any queries.
