Instructions

Gather everyone together and explain that you’ll be doing a quiz to see how much people know about Scouts, as well as to find out what they want to do in Scouts in the future.

Tell everyone that Scouts want young people to help shape their plans for the future, so that we stay relevant, interesting and engaging for generations to come, and this activity will help Scouts UK to find out their thoughts and ideas.

Ask everyone to get into pairs or small teams.

When everyone’s ready, slowly read through the multiple-choice questions, giving plenty of time for people to note down their answers.

When you reach the open-ended questions, explain that for each one they should write down three words, but don’t tell them how these questions will be scored.

At the end, ask everyone to swap sheets and reveal the answers.

For the multiple choice questions, teams get one point for each correct answer.

For the open-ended questions, to gain a point in this round, teams must have the same answer as another team. Teams get a point for each team who has the same answer as them. For example, if three teams have the same answer, they each get three points.

An adult volunteer should note down the three most popular answers from the open-ended questions, so they can be submitted to Scouts UK through the Smartsheet form.

Once everyone has completed their scores, add them up and see who scored the most points. You could give out bonus points for best team-name, most creative answer or best teamwork.

Now, people could create their own quiz to find out from each other about what they think about the future of Scouts. They should think about what questions they want to ask, what answers do they want to find out, who is their audience, and how is the quiz completed (such as on paper, digitally or as a game).

Once everyone’s finished, you could try each other’s quizzes, then talk as a group about what they think the future of Scouts is and what they really want to see happen in Scouts.
