Don't know UK, but you should have had that during you theory lessons.
Yeah, but, you try a web search for the UK rules! - you just get dozens of links of the form given in the OP. And one has the impression that it's been changing every five minutes for the last several months, and you've already been told that the text books are out of date, so how on earth do you think the instructors could find out what the score was to get it right in the "theory lessons"? - and even if they did, that was last week, who's to know the rules haven't changed again this week?
You can see why some people think "sod it, I'll just go flying".
