Students are initially assessed on key skills, which are consolidated and then assessed in a more challenging environment. For Edexcel there is a choice of assessment criteria, we have found that focusing on the below allows a range of skills and knowledge to be demonstrated.
- Rope Management
- Belay with different devices.
- Protecting a bouldering climber, spotting/pads
- Demonstrate different climbing techniques
- Tie various climbing knots
- Rules and Health & Safety guidelines
