Great for developing a wide range of skills in one project such as scientific literacy, numeracy, ICT, communication.

Very positive. A perfect module for TY.

It was excellent way of allowing students to really put the nature of science into practice.

Already have first years planning their SciFest projects for next year.

It was good for the pupil to see each other’s work and to see the standard that can be reached.

Prepares students for new CBAs in junior cycle. Gives all students the opportunity to compete in a science competition. Comments from Teachers, SciFest@School 2018 Online Evaluation Questionnaires 5
