Phase I of the contest is going on in schools in Delhi, Lucknow, Chandigarh, Jaipur, Kolkata, Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai. It is for students in Classes 6 to 9.

In Phase I, dictation for students will be held in the classroom. The winners from these tests move on to Phase II, the regional round. This will be an interschool competition. It will be held in Bhavan’s Rajaji Vidyashram on February 21. In this round, in addition to spelling, the focus will also be on pronunciation and etymology. Pictures and symbols will also be used.

In Phase III, top teams from each of the above 11 cities will compete for pre-finals in Mumbai. After this will be the grand finale on March 28. Each team member will be invited with one parent to Mumbai. The four pre-finals and the grand finale will be telecast as a five-part series on National Geographic Channel.
