Its inception with the expanded format was in 2012 when 5,960,862 students from 240 countries and territories around the world competed with each other.

[9] The World Education Games is a major free online educational competition-style event, hosted by the global e-learning provider 3P Learning (creators of subscription-based e-learning platforms designed primarily for schools - such as Mathletics, Spellodrome and IntoScience).

Results are announced after counting all the points and after the organizers had communicated with the parents/ teachers of possible winners and ensured that they had participated in the Games under their own registered accounts.

Multiple registrations and/ or playing under someone's else account is a violation punishable by annulling the results of everyone involved.

Winners are the students who score the highest points in their grade level in each competition separately and in total.

A full list of winners including top ten in each category is available at the official website of World Education Games.
