Information for schools

Organizing Round 1
Once registered, the schools need to attract students locally and prepare for Round 1. All students in vgs can participate, not just those that have English as a subject.
The writing competition
The writing competition in Round 1 will take place on Wednesday January 13th from 09:00 - 12:00. Each school needs to set aside a room for the students and to enlist a jury of teachers to select the best entry. We ask the schools to devise a scheme for anonymizing the texts.
The theme/task will be sent to the registered contact person in the morning of the 13th.
The local juries need to pick a winner and submit the names to English Teachers Norway co/
elainef@viken.no
Deadline: Friday January 22nd.
Short film
The students competing in the category short film will receive the same topic/task as the writers. They will have to submit their film by 23.59 on Sunday January 17th to this site. (An upload link will be published shortly).
Depending on the total number of entrants ETN will either send the entries back to the schools to decide on a school winner or allow all entries to compete in the final. Either way the filmmakers will only have to make one film during the competition.
The Final
The final will take place at Jessheim videregående skole on Wednesday February 17th 2021.
The writers from each school will go head-to-head in a new writing competition either at Jessheim or on-line. The theme/topic will be sent to each schools' contact persons by email.
The writers must be present no later than 08:30, bringing their own laptops.
The filmmakers must be present no later than 12:00.
At noon we'll have lunch together, before viewing the short film entries.
Entertainment and activities will follow until 15:00 when the prize ceremony takes place.
