Education Perfect World Championships Results for 2020.
Over the past week students have had the opportunity to participate in the Education Perfect World Championships. We have participated in this competition the past seven years and 2020 has seen our best results ever. In this competition for students can compete in different languages and gain points for completing vocabulary exercises. The students receive awards for the points they gain and this year our students achieved 49 awards.
