St Mary’s School announced overall winner of Teaching Gadget Music Competition

We are delighted to report that St Mary’s School has been announced as the overall winner of the popular Teaching Gadget Music Competition. Teaching Gadget is an music theory website featuring 100s of interactive music resources, games and quizzes.

This spring, students from across the globe were invited to take part in a competition to win their Music Department some new electronic resources. Over 45,000 students and teachers from across the UK, Europe, Asia and the USA took on the challenge to identify as many keyboard notes as possible within 90 seconds.

With over 200,000 attempts from all participants around the world we are proud that the top 5 highest scorers were students at St Mary’s School, Cambridge! Congratulations to Year 8 student Emilia C. who topped the leader board with an amazing score of 110, closely followed by Diya S. in Year 7 who scored an impressive 109. Well done and thank you to everyone who took part.
