🏆 School Typing Championship
A real typing tournament for your school — four rounds, from every student's own Class Qualifier to a live, synchronized Grand Final. Fair per class, automatic round to round, and it ends the way a championship should: a real podium, and a certificate to keep.

How it works
Every student in every class takes the typing test once.
The same number of top typists from each class move on — at least 3, more if needed so at least 20 total advance.
Top 10 from the whole school go head-to-head.
Top 5 or 6 race live — everyone starts together.
Why schools run it this way
Every class gets its own qualifier and its own final — a strong typist in a big class is never shut out by a stacked roster the way a single school-wide test would.
Tell it your computer count once — it locks in for the whole event and decides batch sizes and the Grand Final's field, so nobody's ever left waiting for a machine that isn't there.
The Grand Final is genuinely synchronized — every finalist starts at the same instant and races side by side, not a quiet test taken on their own schedule.
Advance a round and the next one's groups build themselves automatically from whoever actually qualified — no re-entering rosters, no re-sorting by roll number by hand.
Ready to run your own?
Set your class list and computer count once — the Class Qualifier is ready the moment you're done.
🏆 Create a ChampionshipFrequently Asked Questions
What is a TypingBIRDS School Typing Championship?
A 4-round typing contest for your whole school. Every student starts with a Class Qualifier. The best typists move up — Class Final, then Semi-Final — until a small group races live in the Grand Final.
How many rounds does the tournament have?
Four: Class Qualifier (every student, per class), Class Final (the same number of top students from each class — at least 3, bumped up evenly so at least 20 advance overall), Semi-Final (top 10, pooled across every participating class), and a live Grand Final (top 5 or 6, capped by how many computers you have).
Do I need one computer per student to run this?
No. You enter your computer count once when creating the championship, and every round is automatically split into fair, roll-number-ordered batches sized to that count — you activate one batch at a time as a machine actually frees up.
How does a round actually start for students?
You activate their group once they're seated and ready. A 60-second countdown then starts automatically for everyone in it, and typing begins for the whole group at the exact same instant — no button for students to click.
What makes the Grand Final different from an ordinary typing test?
It's genuinely live: a synchronized countdown starts every finalist typing at the exact same instant, not whenever they individually get around to it, so it plays out like a real race rather than a quiet test taken on their own schedule.
How is a student's result calculated?
By Net WPM — typing speed adjusted for accuracy, so a fast but careless typist doesn't automatically beat someone slower but more accurate. It's WPM × accuracy ÷ 100, and it's what decides every round's ranking.
Do students get anything for winning?
Yes — the top 3 finishers get a full podium display (with confetti) and can each download a personalized certificate showing their name, WPM, and accuracy.
Is running a School Typing Championship free?
It's part of TypingBIRDS' classroom tools — set up your classes, tell the wizard how many computers you have, and the first round is ready to go.
Who can create a Championship — admin or teacher?
Your school admin always can. A teacher can too, but only once the admin has specifically turned that on for them — it's off by default for every teacher, so it's the admin's call who else gets it.
