The Crest Girls' Academy, formerly known as John Kelly Girls' Technology College is a girls' secondary school with academy status located in Neasden, Brent, North West London. The school is situated next to Crest Boys' Academy, and both schools share a sixth form.

The Crest Girls' Academy is sponsored by E-ACT. The school was one of the first to gain a specialism in the specialist schools movement. Crest Girls' now has three specialisms, Technology (1998) Languages (2004) and Training Schools. On 20 August 2013 the school was among those named by The Independent newspaper and the British Humanist Association as adopting a policy similar in wording to the repealed anti-gay legislation Section 28. The school said this was an administrative error.
