To mark the European Day of Languages, we are launching a National Spelling Bee competition.

Following the success of a regional Spelling Bee run by Routes East, this competition will be rolled out nationally for 2010-11. The National Spelling Bee is for Year 7 pupils studying French, Spanish and German. This is the perfect way to get your new students interested in language learning, and to help them learn vital vocabulary.

All schools are invited to participate and will hold the first round of the competition in their school in the Autumn term. Four finalists from each school will then be invited to a Regional Final in March, hosted by Routes into Languages North West at Manchester Metropolitan University. All the Routes consortia will be organising regional competitions across the country, with all the winners coming together for a National final in Cambridge in July 2011.
