You have to take it separately. My school wants their students to get it done even before the PPL skills test. Whether your first language is English or not, and whether you do your training in the UK or not, you have to do it. And speaking English as a first language does not mean you will get a Level 6 right off the bat. I know a Brit who's got Level 4 because of phraseology, whereas me, from Southern Europe, got level 6.
