How can a school set up a low-cost but useful science lab
A school can start with essential apparatus, teacher demonstration kits, basic glassware, models, charts and safety items linked to the syllabus. Buyers often waste budget on advanced items before covering basics. A phased approach helps first create a functional lab, then add advanced equipment. This is useful for schools with limited space, budget or early-stage science programs.
