26/27 CREST Star & SuperStar Kit Box Waiting Lists

About the CREST Star and CREST SuperStar Kit Boxes
Our mission at the British Science Association is to transform access to relevant and meaningful science work for all children and young people, particularly for those who are most often underrepresented in science. We do so by giving teachers the support, tools, and funding they need to provide students with equitable opportunities to lead quality investigations and explore the possibilities of science and why it matters to them.

We developed CREST kit boxes as a one-stop solution for delivering inspiring, educational and relatable STEM activities to school children. Each kit box includes the essential equipment, activity instructions, teacher guidance and pre-printed CREST certificates for the whole class to do eight CREST challenges.

Generous support from partners means we can continue to develop our kit box offer and provide boxes to selected schools in the Engage Teacher Network at no charge. However, demand is high and there are waiting lists for funded kit boxes.

While waiting for a kit box, why not run CREST in your setting using our free resources? Find out more about the Awards here:
