By the British Science Association, the CREST awards help students to tackle science with an investigative approach. This case study describes how Rickmansworth School used a CREST activity day to engage and enthuse students in STEM subjects.

A total of 34 students participated in three different activities solving engineering problems, developing team skills and working to deadlines. A CREST assessor was involved and at the end of the day, 28 students achieved the bronze award.
