It’s perfectly okay to go the wrong way on the driving test in the UK, as long as you do so safely. Sometimes there are complicated places and weird roundabouts, it’s better if you’re in the wrong lane to commit to it
The guy who did my driving test (US) generally did not tell me which way to turn at interactions or Ts and would get angry if I hadn’t guessed correctly. Apparently, it was very obvious to him where I should be going, and he shouldn’t have had to tell me.
At the time, my area held the test in the city with the worst designed roads. Experienced drivers (such as me today) can easily take wrong turns there. It’s like each stretch of road between intersections was independently designed by different people who never communicated.
And also that you communicate that you’re aware what you’ve done, and how you’re going to continue.
I did it on mine, and said “I’ve just come off at the wrong exit, so I’m going to just continue along here.”
Examiner said it was OK, and just directed things back onto the route at the next junction.

I didn’t even say this lol. They just informed me after calmly and gave me new directions.
