No one likes to fail a test. With Driving instruction, qualification allows just three attempts on part 2, the driving ability test and part 3, the instructional ability test. Within two years of passing part 1, the theory and hazard perception test, you must pass both components. Failing to qualify within these attempts will mean restarting the whole process, which cannot begin until after the two years have expired from passing part 1. So that new career you have planned is now put on hold!

So what happens when you find yourself on the last attempt?

My advice to anyone in this situation is to consider whether a fresh approach is needed? Perhaps a different trainer and a new pair of eyes are required to get things back. You also need to ensure you pick the right trainer to put your trust in!

Rescue training is a different ball game!

It would be best to have a trainer who has good extensive knowledge of the qualifying tests and the assessment criteria. Someone who fully understands the marking sheets and can identify the areas that need working on and target those to help you qualify! Sadly there are no special qualifications required to be able to train people to be driving instructors any approved driving instructor can do so?

Choose wisely and make sure the trainer you approach has the qualities needed to help you. Ordit registered trainers have committed to being assessed by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency to meet a high standard. They must be a Grade A instructor and agree to adhere to a strict code of practice. If on the register, they should have a current Ordit badge/certificate displayed in the car and be happy to show you their inspection sheets.

If the trainer you have chosen is not on the ORDIT register, ask what their current grade is and ask to see their last Standards check marking sheet. The same test you are asking them to help you with, and should they not be a Grade A, they lack the very skills you are asking them to pass on to you!

Once qualified, every driving instructor is checked every two or four years and graded on their ability to instruct. Chris is a grade-A having scored 49 out of 51, you can view the highest grade, and a copy of his last Standards check can be viewed by clicking this link: Before the Standards Check, Driving Instructors were assessed via a Check Test and graded 4, 5 or 6 which was the highest grade. Fleet registered Instructors sat a Fleet Check Test, Chris achieved the most elevated status of 6, and you can find this in the blog area of this site by clicking the following link: Fleet Check test result blog.

Any trainer should be able to show their grade when asked, and if at the top quality, they have proven they have good knowledge and ability to apply the skills you are trying to develop to a high standard. Any trainer who has not achieved the top grade lacks knowledge, so pick the right trainer when looking for rescue training that will get you the required pass!

Chris Deane ADI has those proven skills and will help you reach your goals.
