Each partner school can take part to the competition with maximum 3 works per category. A first selection shall be done within the school.  The choice of the 3 products will be done by an internal commission that shall be settled inside the school. The commission shall be composed by 3 people that will vote the product with a score from 0 to 10. The sum of the scores given by each member of the commission will define the final score. The commission shall be composed by: the Principal, the vicar, an administrative assistant, a language teacher, an art teacher, a technology teacher, a foreign language teacher, a representative of the parents.

The judging commission of each school will choose the 3 products per category of their own students.

The 3 works for each category of participants (primary school and low/high secondary school) chosen by each school shall be visible on the website of the project , on the official facebook page and on the Etwinning channel ( for a total of 24 works, 12 for the best practice promotion and 12 for the business plan).

Once issued on the above mentioned channels, each single commission of the partner countries  will vote in the same way as described before, but this time they will judge only the works of the other schools and not their own products. The score will be communicated to the coordinators of the sections of the contest ( Leandro – primary school; Battista- secondary school).

By summing the votes it shall be possible to proclaim the winner of each category. Furthermore, it will be possible to proclaim the winner of a “web” competition of each category thanks to a “free” vote that will be done on the official facebook page of the project.
