"Great
Service, saved lots of time, great resources. We really
enjoyed going through our boxes & feel that the
otems we have selected for our pupils will inspire some
great work & support their ideas. We are looking
to host a sale day in the next academic year in our
new Academy building."

"Absolutely
love the approval box. We think it's a fantastic idea
which is equally matched by the service. Masks play
a huge part in our GCSE curriculum so in the future
we will be looking to improve our inventory further,
hopefully with masks of a wider variety of shapes if
that is in any way possible?*"

"I
have used Starbeck for 8 years & have stocked 3 different
schools with a variety of artefacts from African masks to
Hindu wedding outfits. The children love touching the items
& Ofsted love the diversity of cultural artefacts. All
areas of the curriculum can benefit from Starbeck's items."

"A
lovely selection of artefacts. It was really good to be able
to look at them before buying, rather than have to guess from
a picture."
