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 the different types and purposes of sport and physical activity events.
A.P2Explain the roles and responsibilities associated with sports and physical activity events.
B.P3Produce a competent plan for a sport or physical activity event.
B.P4Produce basic promotional materials for a sport or physical activity event.
C.P5Perform tasks fully, correctly and safely to achieve planned aims and objectives for the delivery of a sport or physical activity event.

Merit

3 criteria
A.M1Analyse the types, purposes, roles and responsibilities associated with sport and physical activity events.
B.M2Demonstrate effective planning and promotion for a sport or physical activity event with a clear awareness of the event aims.
C.M3Manage key decisions and responsibilities in a role to effectively contribute to the delivery of planned outcomes for a sport or physical activity event.

Distinction

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.

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.

Learning aims

  • A.
  • B. Plan and promote a sport or physical activity event
  • C. Deliver a planned sport or physical activity event

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.
