Practice driving test.

The practice driving test(mock test to some people) can be a very useful aid to help develop the pupil.   Up to that point they have been told that their driving lessons are going to plan and they are driving to a good standard.
So the practice driving test is the pupils chance to see how they can get on without the help of their own driving instructor.
This will also prepare them for the driving test with a driving test examiner.
