Competitions, Olympiads & Scholarships for Class 5

Olympiads, competitions and scholarships that are genuinely open to Class 5 students in India, each one checked against the organizer's official information. WiWit lists 435 verified class 5 competitions in India from 201 organizations. They include options 158 available online, 95 free to enter. Last reviewed September 2026.

Class 5 is the busiest year in the primary catalogue and the point where many families first look seriously for competitions. Almost every national olympiad runs a Class 5 paper, scholarship exams begin to open, and creative contests carry a dedicated upper-primary category. The listings here span maths, science, English, general knowledge, drawing, writing, quizzing, coding and robotics. Because the choice is genuinely large at this class, the comparison table is the fastest way through it: it shows eligibility, mode and fee together, so a shortlist takes minutes rather than an evening of organizer websites.
