It's been a looong 12 months with almost nothing to laugh at (apart from your weekly Beano, of course!), but don't worry because help is at help in the shape of BRITAIN'S FUNNIEST CLASS 2025!

Yes, that's right, the competition that gives YOU and YOUR CLASS the chance to put YOUR SCHOOL on the COMEDY MAP is back and BETTER THAN EVER!

And that's not all - there's more!

The winning class will be in with the chance of winning some blamtastic prizes, including:

• A Beano illustration of the class with their teacher 

• A 'Golden Gnasher' medal for every pupil in the class 
• A fun-filled Beano Day for the class 
• A one-year Beano subscription for every pupil in the class 
• A Beano comic school subscription 
• One copy of Beano's boomic 'The Day We Got Uploaded' published by Farshore for every pupil in the class 

Want to enter? Of course you do! The search for the funniest class in the country starts now and will run until Friday, April 4th, 2025, so just head to our competition page and submit your class's best original jokes here. The Beano mischief makers will shortlist the top ten finalists, and then it’s over to the public to vote for their favourite class.

So, who’s got the best jokes in Britain? It might just be YOU! 

Need some ideas?

We've teamed up with Place2Be to bring you a brand-new lesson, ‘Move Your Mood’. This exciting lesson shows kids how physical movement can boost their mood, brainpower, and even help them crack a smile. It’s all about feeling blamtastic while having fun! 

And we want your class to get moving and spark their imaginations as they come up with the funniest, most original gags for the competition. So if you need some help crafting the perfect joke, check out our manual of mischief here and download our lesson plan here.
