How Prizes Work
Shared Area awards prizes to the highest-rated educational videos across different subjects and key stages. Prizes celebrate outstanding content and encourage creators to produce engaging, accurate, and accessible learning material.
Each prize is determined by community ratings. When viewers rate a video, those ratings contribute to the prize rankings. The video with the highest average rating in each category wins.
