Abstract
School Tasking is a university-led primary outreach project based on the television show, Taskmaster. It began at Warwick Law School (WLS) in 2021 when Ali, as Director of Widening Participation (WP), was looking for ways to make outreach work more engaging. As a Taskmaster fan, she knew that its joyful, gently competitive format could inject fun and interactivity into primary school outreach. In Taskmaster itself, five comedians are pitted against each other in nonsensical tasks to win points from the Taskmaster, Greg Davies,1 . Taking the elements of, to borrow the words of the show’s creator, Alex Horne, ‘competing against each other in a supportive way doing ridiculous things for no good reason’, School Tasking was born.
