Your road to driving

Getting your provisional licence

Before you can learn to drive you will need to obtain a provisional licence. You can apply for this from the Driver & Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA). The application form can be obtained from your local post office.

  The theory & hazard perception test

The theory & hazard perception test must be passed before you can book or take your practical driving test. It is a multiple choice theory test followed by a series of video clips for the hazard perception element. We can advise on the learning materials required and our instructors will will be there to advise and provide support at every stage. To book the the theory & hazard perception test you will need to contact the driving standards agency (DSA) on 0300 200 1122 or online at www.dsa.gov.uk

    The practical driving test

The practical driving test is also booked with the DSA. We will let you know when we feel you are ready for the test.

Your road to becoming a driving instructor

Qualifying as a driving instructor is a 3 part process and can take anything from 3 months to 2 years, depending on your skill and commitment.

Part 1

This is a theory and hazard perception test, similar to that taken by learner drivers, but the pass marks required are much higher.

Part 2

 The test of your driving skills and ability. About a 45 minute drive with a supervising examiner and the standard required is very high. We offer training on a one to one basis, to achieve the standard required quickly.

Part 3

  The test of your ability to teach learner drivers at all levels of ability, from beginner to experienced. This is known to be the toughest of all the tests, but again with the correct training it need'nt be that hard. We offer very high quality training on a one to one basis. You can take as much or as little training as you need.

With the correct training, you could be on the road as an ADI in weeks

 The rewards of the job are many. Working for yourself or as part of a bigger organisation, the benefits are there. Most ADI's will agree that the best part of this job is watching your pupils progress under your guidance and then pass their driving test, having gained an invaluable life skill. ...more>>
