Courgettes do need some heat and can take a little time to germinate. Try to be patient.
Have you planted them too deep? -  takes longer to show.
Is the soil too wet ?- the seeds could rot.
Are the seeds old? - may not germinate

If really impatient have a little look to see what the seeds are doing.

If genuinly failed its not too late to start again. Mine haven't even been sown yet :)

They are probably cold, they need near 20c to come up and they are good at it, so maybe you move them somewhere warmer?
