Driving Instructor Training

 

Skills required

Approved driving instructors require a high standard of driving ability and a sound knowledge of the subjects related to teaching others to drive and must be able to apply these abilities.

Teaching others to drive includes being knowledgeable about:

  • how to teach
  • how people learn
  • how to assess the performance of others
  • communication
  • interpersonal skills
  • Legal requirements

When applying to become a driving instructor, you must fulfill the following legal requirements:

  • hold a full UK or European Union (EU/European Economic Area (EEA) unrestrited car driving licence
  • have held it for a total of at least four out of the past six years prior to entering the Register after qualifying;
  • not have been disqualified from driving at any time in the four years prior to being entered in the Register
  • be a “fit and proper” person to have your name entered in the Register. All convictions, motoring and non-motoring, will be taken into account when the DSA assess your suitability to be entered on the Register. From Spring 2007 applicants will be required to have an enhanced level criminal record check. The information from this check will be used by the DSA to assess the suitability of persons applying for inclusion on the Register of Approved Driving Instructors.
  • Pass the two qualifying practical examinations within two years of passing the theory examination
  • Apply for registration within 12 months of passing the final part of the examination.
Qualifying

The qualification examination is in three parts:

  • a computer based theory test.
  • a practical test of your driving ability
  • a practical test of your ability to instruct

 

You must take and pass all three parts of the examination in this order and must complete the whole examination within two years of passing the theory test. If you are unable to complete the examinations within this time you must start again from the beginning and pass each part once again. You can take the theory test as many times as you wish but you are only allowed a maximum of three attempts at each of the practical tests within each two year qualification period.
