Satips National Handwriting Competition Website

The Competition opens on 16th November 2009 and closes on 5th May 2010. Full information and entry form are included on this official website, which is generously being run by John Catt Educational.

This national competition offers all 4-14 year olds the opportunity to show off their handwriting and provides the opportunity for teachers and individual pupils to ensure handwriting continues to be an essential part of our educational process. For a teacher, competition is a great way to motivate children and for an individual pupil a way to show off a skill, demonstrate artistic flair, control of a medium and individual style.

There are prizes to be gained by Class winners and Individual Age Group winners. We are very pleased that prizes for the children will again this year be generously supplied to us by Stabilo and prizes for the Staff will be supplied by the Manuscript Pen Company Ltd.

We are delighted that Patricia Lovett, expert, scribe and lecturer, will be again working with the panel of judges to evaluate the entries for legibility, flow, consistency, individuality, layout and tidiness. Please read the report from the 2009 competition which gives hints and tips on how to win.

Schools can read the rules and download the application form from this website. The entry checklist gives a step-by-step guide on how to enter the competition.

Good Luck!
