CREST Awards
The CREST Awards scheme is the British Science Association’s flagship programme for 5 to 19-year-olds.
During a CREST Award project, students take on the roles of scientists, researchers, engineers and designers to pursue their own ideas – inspiration & innovation all in one!
You can browse a fantastic selection of free CREST Award resources here and filter them by award or topic. Take a look at the levels below:
Star
Typically completed by 5-7 year olds (Key Stage 1), CREST Star challenges relate to children’s experiences. You don’t need to be a teacher, have a science background or have access to specialist equipment to run Star activities.
SuperStar
Typically completed by 7-11 year olds (Key Stage 2), CREST SuperStar challenges relate to broader situations that children are likely to have come across. Like with CREST Star, you don’t need to be a teacher, have a science background or have specialist equipment to run SuperStar activities.
Discovery
Typically completed by 10-14 year olds (Key Stage 3), students work collaboratively on the project or challenge(s) in self-managed groups. They record and reflect on their work during the project, using a CREST Discovery passport, and communicate their findings as a group presentation.
Bronze
Typically completed by 11-14 year olds (Key Stage 3), students undertake a project of their choosing. They make decisions about how to progress, write about their findings and evaluate their project in their CREST profile form or workbook.
