You can fail, BUT it is if the instructor feels that you are confident enough controlling the bike on the road bit. It is for your safety...
Note that school bikes will have been abused by many people, so make positive gear changes and don't worry about draging the rear brake is slow speed manoeuvres. Also look where yu want to go and make sure you shoulder check.

Good stuff... You basically can't fail the CBT but the controls might take a little time to get used to if it's all new to you - especially if it's manual.
If you're going onto do a DAS course, I found a couple of hours instructed pootling on a 125 to be quite helpful at cementing the basics, before going onto the big bikes.
