What this sheet is for
Show a pupil where they actually are across the whole course, and give the instructor a written basis for saying the test is, or is not, the right call yet.
Who it is for
Driving instructors and the pupils and parents who want to see progress rather than hear about it, and anyone supervising private practice.
How to use it
- Write the pupil's topics in your own order as they are introduced.
- Rate each topic the same way every time — prompted, independent, consistent — and date it.
- Record every mock test with the faults noted and what to work on next.
- Write the readiness view honestly, including what is still to cover.
- Review it with the pupil before a test is booked.
What is on the sheet
2 pages, in this order:
Page 1
Printed under the title: One pupil, the whole course on two sides — which topics have been covered, how independently they are driven now, the mock tests, and the instructor's honest view of readiness.
Your syllabus, your rating scale. What a test examines and what counts as a fault is set by the testing body where you are; this sheet does not list a syllabus or a pass standard. Write the topics your course covers, and rate each one the same way every time so a pupil can see movement, not a mood.
Write-on lines: Pupil · Instructor · Started · Lessons so far · Private practice hours
Topics — write your own, in the order you teach them; date each level as it is reached
Table, 12 rows: Topic · First covered · Prompted · Independent · Consistent · Notes

Mock tests — one line per mock; what you saw, not a score
Table, 5 rows: Date · Route / area · Faults noted · Your call · Work on next
Readiness
Write-on lines: Instructor's view · Test date if booked · Test centre · Still to cover before the test · Pupil's own view
Lesson by lesson — the short version — what was worked on and what comes next

Questions
Why is there no syllabus or pass standard printed on the sheet?
Because what the test covers and what counts as a fault is set by the testing body where you are, and instructors sequence courses differently. The rows are blank so the sheet fits your course, not somebody else's.
What does 'would it have passed?' mean on the mock tests?
Your judgement, in your own words, of whether that drive would have met the standard on the day — a yes, a no, or a not yet. It is your call, recorded.
