For UK schools the CAA Website includes this.
FCL Standards Document 38 Version 1.0
14 Training Records
14.1 The form of student training records is to be specified in the Training Manual and be acceptable to the CAA. The records are to include:
(a) Personal details of the student including Next of Kin contact details and details of the ICAO PPL held as a pre-requisite to enrol; FTOs should ask to see the actual licence held or a copy of it to ensure compliance before enrolment.
(b) A summary of any credit to which the student may be entitled.
(c) A cumulative record of lessons attended by subject or lessons missed in order to ensure each student meets the minimum hours requirement.

(d) Regular reports by subject on the students performance and progress. Students should be invited to sign each report to acknowledge its contents.

But very few schools bother to issue them.

Having said that, we issue course completion certificates on request, as do some other specialist groundschools.

It depends on the FTO's approach, but you don't necessarily need all ATPL passes to start CPL training, however, you need them to be in place prior to your flight test. As the exam pass record is held by the CAA and presumeably all would need to be in place to book a CAA examiner, does this not make it an irrelevance to have a completion certificate issued? In any case you should have your CAA issued pass credits with your individual reference number.

Arguably you wouldn't need all 14 ATPL passes to sit the CPL flight test, provided you had sufficient subjects passed to meet the basic CPL requirements, i.e. cross credits.
