PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Practices Practice Question
Which type of report is produced by the Project Manager to provide the Project Board with a summary of progress at the end of each stage?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many candidates confuse the End Stage Report with the Highlight Report, because both summarize progress, but the Highlight Report is periodic during a stage, while the End Stage Report is the formal closure report at stage end.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
End Stage Report
The End Stage Report is the correct answer because PRINCE2 requires the Project Manager to produce this report at the end of each management stage to provide the Project Board with a summary of progress against the current stage plan, including performance, lessons learned, and a forecast for the next stage. This report is a key input for the Project Board's decision to authorize the next stage or take corrective action.
