The CREST Awards Scheme is the UK’s largest national awards scheme for project work in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
CREST is the ideal way to provide a framework to students who want to undertake real world investigations or challenges in STEM subjects. Flexible, adaptable and easy to use, CREST is operated by the British Science Association, with the support of a network of local co-ordinators like Corylus Learning.
For younger students who want to do lots of short investigations, the CREST Star Investigators scheme is a great way to get access to easy to do, exciting activities, and to reward students for doing real science activities. It’s also a great way to get older students supporting younger students. With easy to arrange activities, and plenty of supporting information, there’s no better way for teachers to build confidence and start developing activities with their students.
