A “model” of how something works is a “theory”.

No it isn't. A model is a suggested explanation of how some system came into being or how said system works. Once a model is established, people can look for evidence that supports or contradicts the model and make adjustments that take those observations into consideration. It cannot be considered to be a theory until it is tested and those tests can be duplicated. Since evolution cannot, or at least has not, been duplicated, it is not a theory.

Evolution is no longer just a “theory”, but a science.

See above.

There are various theories contained within evolutionary science, such as the bird from dinosaur hypothesis – but that is pretty well proven.

I believe that there are relatively recent, within the last 3-5 years, admissions by some well-known evolutionists that admit this suggestion is incorrect.

The facts of evolution are in evidence. Read the literature.

No it isn't; and I have read the literature. The 'literature' is riddled with words such as 'possible', 'might', 'could', 'likely', etc. These words suggest nothing more that conjectures and guesses; not facts.

That is the definition of a “theory”.

It cannot be considered to be a theory until it is tested and those tests can be duplicated. Since evolution cannot, or at least has not, been duplicated, it is not a theory.

No, after testing and replicated it becomes more of an accepted theory. After enough confirmation it becomes a “fact”.
Evolution has not been duplicated, but it is tested continually. The person who theorized (hypothesized) that birds came from dinosaurs posited that we should be able to find intermediate animals – dinosaurs with feathers. They have been found. The people who hypothesized (theorized) that whales once lived on land predicted that fossils would be found of the intermediate animals. They have been found.
