Care Respect Inspire

Duolingo Competition

During the lockdown period from 5th January to 9th March 2021, the Languages department ran a competition on the Duolingo app/website for all students who do Spanish with prizes for the top three and top ten and credits for the top 100.

This app helps with language learning and you gain XP (experience points) for each lesson you study. Each lesson is worth 10 XP. It is fun and has lots of ways to keep learners engaged. Those students who really engaged with this have shown tremendous INDEPENDENCE in their learning and we are so proud of them!

We had 356 students join the competition and we gave them weekly updates on progress and the leader board.

Trabajo fantástico y felicitaciones a:
