The purpose of this paper is to classify all pairs ( D , G ) , where D is a nontrivial 2‐ ( v , k , 2 ) design, and G ≤ A u t ( D ) acts transitively on the set of blocks of D and primitively on the set of points of D with sporadic socle. We prove that there exists only one such pair ( D , G ) : D is the unique 2‐(176,8,2) design and G = H S , the Higman–Sims simple group.
