b) build a robot using a robot construction set.
The “Construction kit” category is held for pupils and students up to secondary schools (ISCED 0-3). There may be also older people such as teachers or parents in the team but such people must not participate on the robot development, they are to supervise the team as “non-playing” or “honorary” captains and mainly care about the young team members in terms of safety and well-being. It such teams, it is allowed to participate for the students of the last year of their secondary education even if they have already passed the leaving exams and officially finished their secondary education under the condition they were in a “studying state” earlier this year.
