I am teaching gr. 12 Biology now and I have all kinds of fancy electrophoresis equipment. But that is not really necessary. Many university websites have lots of support for science activities. The University of Utah has a virtual tutorial where you learn to make and pour your own gels. It's fabulous and really reccommended for teachers and students alike. Here's the link:

If you want to make your own electrophoresis equipment with 5 x 9V batteries and a dish soap container attached to batteries with alligator clips, you could save yourself upwards of $2000!
