PRINCE2F Highlight Report Practice Question
Which TWO of the following documents are produced by the Project Manager and reviewed by the Project Board?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often confuse the Checkpoint Report (for the Project Manager) with the Highlight Report, or think the Exception Report is always produced when it is only triggered by exceptions. The End Stage Report is a key board review document, not just a simple progress update.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Highlight Report
The Highlight Report and End Stage Report are both produced by the Project Manager and are formally reviewed by the Project Board. The Highlight Report provides regular progress updates, while the End Stage Report gives the Board information needed to authorize the next stage. The Exception Report (C) is also produced by the PM and reviewed by the Board, but it is only produced when tolerances are forecast to be exceeded, so it is not a routine review document. The End Project Report (E) is reviewed by the Board at the end of the project, but the question asks for documents reviewed during the project boundaries, making B and D the correct pair.
