BM QUIZZING FOCUS
BM QUIZZING FOCUS
The ability of children to achieve well at school is compounded by mental ill-health and demotivation in NI. Combating this issue relies on:

Inspiring students
1 Boosting self-esteem amongst young people is incredibly important as this leads to improved mental well-being and creates a lasting impact on their life and future success. Through quizzing, our organisation caters to the foundation of this through advancing students’ communication, decision-making and self-confidence skills.
2 Decreasing anxiety is another important mission. We designed our Quiz Club Programme to manage this directly by providing enjoyment to students and helping possibly isolated students connect and forge strong friendships.
3 Students will also become inspired to reach their maximum potential through motivational interactions with celebrities and world leaders mentioned within articles published on our website and through our public events such as the BMQC. This combats the growing rise of students feeling demotivated to learn. Thus, increasing academic attainment and respect for schools.
WHY QUIZZING?
WHY QUIZZING?
During pre-project development, we used a ‘test and learn’ approach, initially identifying the prominent issues affecting young people in the community. We thought of what could happen if organisations engaged with schools and helped combat this? We began devising a project to help address this and after much trial and error at a local school we eventually came to the idea of hosting an internal school quiz tournament. Students eagerly wished to join the competition thus, making our mission closer to success. Next, we analysed the results of the programme and found since the club was introduced, participation in the school's existing STEM club grew dramatically by 700%. Attendance levels also increased and teachers also reported increased attentiveness in class and motivation to learn, with questions displaying heightened curiosity.
What if more young minds could be connected by an exciting, educational experience such as the BMQC? Passion is ignited in pupils and schools are well placed to make a real, lasting difference.
