Some have described it as the most wonderful time of the year and December means only one thing in the Interactive Schools HQ…

What is #SocialAdvent?

For those of you who are not aware (where have you been?!) we run an annual social extravaganza that goes by the name of #SocialAdvent - 25 days of social and digital challenges for your school to take part in. 

Missed last year’s #SocialAdvent? Check out all of the action from last year and our lucky winners.

Why should my school take part in #SocialAdvent?

  • Show off your skills in all things digital and social.

  • A great way to showcase the brilliant things that take place at your school. 

  • Learn new social media skills that will help in your school marketing efforts for 2020. 

  • Collaborate and communicate with schools all around the world. 

  • A great way to get the pupils involved.

  • You could be one of our lucky daily winners

  • We will retweet all of your entries to over 13k followers.

How can my school take part?

  • Current clients of Interactive Schools will shortly receive a printed desk calendar from the postman. 

  • If your school is not a current client of Interactive Schools or you have not received this in the post, do not fear! Simply fill in the form below to download a digital version of the calendar. 

  • Most of the challenges can be scheduled in advance, handy for the weekend challenges! If you need any help scheduling, get in touch with our team (social@interactiveschools.com) 

  • Don’t forget to use the hashtag: #SocialAdvent to make sure your entry is counted. 

  • Have fun and take part in the daily, festive challenges.

Do you have a version for schools who do not celebrate Christmas?

Absolutely! As we do not want any schools to miss out, we have put together an Alternative #SocialAdvent. Although it’s an alternative version, you will not miss out on any of the fun. Fill in the form below to download the alternative version of #SocialAdvent.

How do I know if my school has won?

This year’s #SocialAdvent is set to be even bigger than last year so don’t let your school get stuck in 2018! We can’t wait to see what this year’s version of #SocialAdvent has to offer. May the best school win!
