Following the end of the opening challenge, Ardenne led with five points, one more than St Jago High’s four.
The speed challenge again saw Ardenne finishing ahead with 26 points at the end of their third and final minute, having racked up some 14 and 20 points after the first and second minutes, respectively.
Meanwhile, St Jago trailed on 22 at the end of their third and final minute, having mounted 11 and 17 after the end of their first and second minutes, respectively.
The start of the buzzer section was, however, delayed as the teams sought to query answers to questions, but the results remained unchanged.
After a steady start, Ardenne, who only managed to answer one question in the buzzer section, held their nerves to secure victory after St Jago crumbled to 16, having failed to answer majority of the questions correctly for which they pressed the buzzer.
St Jago last won the title in 2010. Sixty-three schools entered this year's competition.
