BBC Bitesize: Don’t Learn Off Randoms campaign

Entrant: BBC Creative; Category: In-house Campaigns

Don’t Learn Off Randoms was created to encourage GCSE students to use BBC Bitesize to help revise, instead of websites like YouTube and Wikipedia, where information can be contributed by anyone and is not necessarily accurate.

The witty campaign intended to disrupt scrolling students and make them question who they were learning from in the run-up to exams. It reached 90% of the target audience of 15- to 17-year-olds and attracted 23% new users to BBC Bitesize.
