Subject: QuizMe Competition

Date: 05th February 2025

As part of our ongoing efforts to ensure that the students sitting CSEC Mathematics in May/June
2025 actively practice mathematics, the Ministry of Education is launching a Mathematics
QuizMe Competition.

Competition Overview

The Mathematics Intervention team, in collaboration with Regional Education Officers and
District Education Officers, will visit schools to supervise the competition. All eligible students
will participate simultaneously, completing an assigned QuizMe selected for the school. The
competition will be held once a week for half an hour from February 10 to April 11, 2025.

Schools are encouraged to utilize their IT lab or allow students to use their personal smartphones
to participate. The Education Officers and Mathematics Monitors will collect the names of winners
across various categories at the end of the competition.

The topic of the quiz for each week is attached to this document, along with a link to the quizzes
under the topic. However, the Mathematics Intervention team will determine the specific quiz on
competition day. This approach encourages students to practice all available quizzes under the
assigned topic throughout the week.
Competition Rules

1. Eligibility: Open to all students sitting the May/June 2025 CSEC Mathematics
examination.
2. Devices: Students may use their personal smartphones, borrow a device if necessary, or
use a computer system in the school’s IT lab.
3. Calculators: Not allowed during the competition.
4. Time Limit: All participants in the school will start together and have 30 minutes to
complete the quiz.
5. Webpage Restrictions: Students must remain on the quiz webpage throughout the
competition.
6. No Assistance: No external help is permitted.

Prizes & Incentives

The following persons from each school will receive prizes from the Ministry of Education and
will have their names published on the radio, television and social media.

• Top Performers: All students who achieve full marks.

• Fastest and Most Accurate: The top three students who complete the quiz the fastest with
the highest scores.

Challenges & Possible Solutions

Challenge Possible Solutions

No internet
Students may activate a one-day mobile data plan. Teachers, students, or
access
education officers can share a hotspot if willing.

Limited Students may borrow a device from a classmate or use the school’s IT lab.
number of
devices

Weak internet Schools should provide advance notice to students so they can arrange
connectivity access to a device and a reliable internet connection. If the school has
separate Wi-Fi for teachers, teachers may use their phone’s hotspot to
provide students with access.

Other Schools can adjust rules and guidelines to allow more students to participate.
For example, students can take the quizzes in batches of 30. Those who
finish may lend their devices (if willing) to others, ensuring everyone gets a
chance to participate.

By successfully implementing this competition, we aim to motivate students to practice

mathematics regularly, both at school and at home. This initiative will encourage healthy
competition, enhance student engagement, and improve mathematical proficiency in preparation
for the CSEC Mathematics examination.
