What to do?.....

My understanding is that the course is in lieu of the fine and points, an offence has still been committed.

But as I have no first, or second, hand experience, I can't argue the point.

As I understood it, you still pay the fine but you don't
get the points. Dunno if different forces have different
idea's on this tho.

Why? has that stopped you before?

I never argue unless I think I'm right.

You aren't convicted of anything and the payment is to cover the cost of the course.

I have a piece of paper that states quite clearly that I don't have to declare it

Beat me to it. Going on the course is the alternative to taking the hit of either a conviction or facing a court date. I was told that the offence would not be prosecuted if I attended the course. Even had the PC Plod who was responsible for the (potential) charges turn up and check me out on the day!
