Assessment criteria

Reproduced verbatim from the Pearson specification — the same grid the assignment brief carries. A unit grade is the highest band where all criteria in that band (and every band below it) are met.

Pass

A.P1Explain how products are differentiated and the impact this has on the approach to merchandising these products
A.P2Explain the merchandising and display techniques and
B.P3Generate design ideas to meet a client merchandising brief
C.P4Create a storyboard using a variety of sketches, diagrams and images to meet a merchandising brief
C.P5Present a design idea and storyboard to an audience
C.P6Analyse the use of merchandising in both physical and commerce situations for a range of hospitality organisations

Merit

3 criteria
A.M1Analyse the different merchandising and display techniques and tools used in hospitality and how they influence customers to buy
B.M2Use feedback to analyse the effectiveness of the design
C.M3Evaluate the success of different merchandising and display techniques used in hospitality and those in their own designs.

Command verbs in this unit

The verb decides the depth expected — that is what separates Pass from Merit and Distinction work on the same learning aim.

ExplainGenerateCreatePresentAnalyseUseEvaluate
Pearson's ladder runs Identify → Describe → Explain → Compare / Analyse → Evaluate / Justify / Assess. A Merit or Distinction criterion on the same aim always implies the Pass beneath it: an “evaluate” answer that never first “explains” fails, however polished it reads. Hover a verb for what it demands.

How checkb.tech checks this unit

Upload a learner's submission and checkb.tech reads it against exactly these criteria, reporting each one as met, partly met, or not met — with the evidence that informed the verdict cited, so every call is auditable.

The check runs against the official Pearson documents for this unit, and identical evidence always produces an identical result — the same script gets the same verdict every time.

It never awards a grade. You stay the assessor: confirm, dismiss, or act on every criterion before your assessment decision is final.
