This tune from #MCGrammar about @alexhorne.bsky.social was far too good not to share more widely. We set him the task of including certain words in a rap about Alex and he did not disappoint. 🤩🔥🕶️🎶🎤📋

Snails, Jaffa Cakes and rubber ducks: making outreach playful Outreach initiatives like ‘School Tasking’ show how academics can break down barriers, engage young learners, and make higher education feel accessible rather than intimidating

Great news for tasky teachers and teeny taskers!

Taskmaster Education and English Heritage have teamed up to make school trips even more engaging. Find out more below ⬇️

That’s not possible. It’s just the right amount.

Two female secondary school pupils stand on grass outside a castle. They hold clipboards. The English Heritage logo is top right and Taskmaster Education logo bottom left of the image.

Pupils are taking history into their own hands (literally).

#Taskmaster x English Heritage challenges are already being put to the test at school visits — with glorious levels of teamwork, chaos & creativity.

Teachers: want in? 👉 www.english-heritage.org.uk/learn/school...

These Little Little Alexes have been the School Tasking project mascot for 4 years now & are made by the unbelievably talented Triin Lane (Crafty Estonean on Instagram).

Looks like Little Little Alex is getting his 15 minutes of fame on the show tonight!

Here is a helpful little #TaskmasterClub explainer video from Jess Nagy over on TikTok.

Jess explains how she used the Taskmaster Club resources and how, as well as being a lot of fun, it really helped with team building and problem solving.

We're so proud of the fact that last year we worked with schools in some of the least-advantaged areas across the UK & Ireland. And the kids really enjoyed the project 🤩
