Our competition is now open to schools in most countries. If you're a parent or pupil at a school, please talk to a member of staff at your school - we'd love to hear from them and get them involved! If you're a homeschooling parent or pupil, you are most welcome to make use of the poems and resources freely available on our website, and subscribe to our Poem of the Week email (you must be over 13 to subscribe).

The UK Department for Education funds a stand-alone competition for schools in England and it is free to enter for those schools. The "International" competition is open to schools in countries where no equivalent competition exists, and there is a modest fee for registration and participation. Please answer this simple question and then the right registration form will appear for you to fill in. Submitting one of the forms will enable us to tell you all about how you can take part.
