i am aware of the medical needed to go solo that was one of the first things i read about from doing the air law exam!!
just wondered if an HGV one is good enough or not.
It may be, but you still have to get your GP's signature on the appropriate form - or, a JAA class 2 medical. (Class 1 for commercial can only be issued at Gatwick AMC)
school flying order book ive never even heard of it!!
What seems to be missing here is communication. Regardless of the reasons why your instructor isn't sending you solo, he should be telling you why he isn't, and should be telling you where you get your medical, that you need to read this, or do that exam. Somebody should be mentoring your progress through the PPL (or NPPL) course and it seems to me that they're failing you.
Not getting at you.
