Naše škola se již řadu let zúčastňuje soutěže Best in English, protože účast v této soutěži je pro naše studenty výzvou k tomu, aby si porovnali své znalosti angličtiny se studenty na školách v ČR i v zahraničí. Studenti zároveň soutěží a porovnávají si své výsledky mezi sebou navzájem a každý se snaží být ten nejlepší. Za účast v soutěži dostávají účastníci kromě jedničky i sladkou odměnu, a ti nejlepší diplom.
