As part of the KS5 science enrichment pupils are taking part in the gold CREST award. This allows them to conduct real research in a longer-term project that requires around 70 hours’ work. At Gold level, students’ work is expected to contribute something new to the scientific or technological community or to a particular field of study

Crest has many benefits including;

  • Improved GCSE grades and increased interest in continuing in STEM education and careers
  • Giving students a sense of achievement for students of all ages and abilities
  • Giving students a real-life experience of ‘being’ a scientist and working on STEM projects
  • Students can use CREST to enhance their UCAS personal statements – our scheme is well-regarded by universities
  • Extra value from other activities, such as the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, STEM Clubs, Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) and the Children’s University Passport to Learning.
