Submitting your students’ entries online

To submit entries online, please follow these steps:

Step 1: Please name each of your students' files as the following: student name(s), year group, school name.

Step 2: Fill out your school details using the form below, then drag and drop all your students’ entries into the grey box and select ‘submit entries’.

Entry forms are not needed for online entries.

Captcha Code

  • Only teachers should submit entries.
  • If submitting photos of entries, make sure all the information can be read clearly.
  • Make sure you have read the full terms and conditions before submitting entries as you will not be able to edit them once they are sent.
  • If you have lots of entries, you may like to put all entries in a Zip file before uploading, or submit in small batches of 20 entries or so.
  • The maximum size per upload is 2 GB. If you are sending lots of files, make sure their total size doesn’t exceed this.
  • The uploading process may take a while, especially if you are sending lots of files. Please don’t close your browser window until you are taken to the next screen.
  • Make sure you are using an up-to-date internet browser such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Safari or Firefox (Internet Explorer is no longer supported)
  • Please use a computer to submit entries, rather than a device (tablet, phone, etc).
  • We recommend that you drag and drop files into the grey box rather than using 'click here' to browse for files on your computer. If you are using the browser method, make sure you select all the files you need to submit in one go.
  • Videos may take a while to upload so you could put them on a video sharing website such as YouTube or Vimeo first. Then, you can copy the web link (make sure it is not set to private) and paste it into a Word document, which you can submit as usual.
  • IMPORTANT: You can opt-in for the chance to have your students' entries displayed in the online gallery (should they be winners) by selecting the tick box in the form below. If you do not want your entries to be displayed, do not select this box.

If you have any problems using the form, please contact our helpline using the contact us form or calling 0345 60 60 655.

Good luck!
