Glurbs Language Quest - everything you need to know
What is it?
Glurbs Language Quest is a language learning event Language Angels primary schools. Schools earn points and rise up the leaderboard when their pupils complete language missions in our app Glurbs.
Who is behind Glurbs?
Glurbs was created by teachers and language experts at Language Angels, the UK’s leading primary school language platform (as used by 6,000+ UK schools).
How can your school win?
In Glurbs, lessons and challenges make up different planets. Each time a user completes a planet in Glurbs, you will receive points towards the leaderboard. (Planet 1 - 1 point, planet 2 = 2 points, planet 3 = 3 points, etc.)
Why now?
Primary-age children have a ‘golden window of opportunity’ when learning languages is both fun and easy. Young minds readily absorb information - and children also tend to be better than adults at mastering new sounds.
What are the prizes?
There are three cash grants available to schools: £5,000 to those with more than 201 pupils; £3,000 to those with 101 to 200; and £2,000 to small schools with fewer than 100 pupils. Read more here
