Manufacturer's Description

The multi-million selling, BAFTA-award winning Buzz! Franchise is back - and this time Buzz is going to take you to school!

'The Schools Quiz' was developed by Sony Computer Entertainment in partnership with both the Department for Education and Skills and expert educational consultancy Schoolzone.

The aim was to create a classroom application for Key Stage 2 pupils that would aid the teaching and testing of National Curriculum content AND be fun for kids to play.

After several successful in-school trials and a period of availability exclusively for educational use, this widely acclaimed game is now available to play in the home.

Customer Reviews

Great game for the kids
I have the Buzz Mega Quiz game and as a family we really enjoy playing this game but my 8 & 10 year old children obviously find the questions extremely hard. We bought this game to give them a better chance of winning.
This is a great game to play as a family and can be quite challenging at times for us as parents. My 8 year old very nearly beat me at the year 3 game :-(
You can choose the year from year 3 to year 6 which is a great option. The games are not as long as the Mega Quiz but some of the questions can still be quite challenging.
We all really enjoy playing this though and have great fun as a family.

Needs More Rounds but Otherwise Great
Schools Quiz is a great way to learn but when i got it, it only had six rounds whereas the others had 8. This was quite a dissapointment but the features were good and kids could really learn from this game. It's a fun way for homework!!!

Great for the whole family
Our son is in year 5 and we love this game. As adults we still have to think about the questions. I like you can select school year 3 to 6 and have choice of all questions or focus on just one. I find the maths questions difficult at speed and our son loves to beat me. Great way to improve learning through play. My favourite is modern language and it is helping with my Spanish. Worth the money and gives younger family members a chance to win, unless you live at our house and have a competitive husband. This is the first buzz we have bought so I can not compare to others but we intend to now buy more. Buzz was recommended to us by friends and we are glad we bought it.
