What the Smart Drive driver training programme in Richmond-upon-Thames entails
To become a driving instructor in the UK, you will need to pass the DVSA Approved Driving Instructor examination. It’s a three-part exam. Part one of the test is a multiple choice question that tests your hazard perception ability. This part of the test is a tougher version of the one new drivers take to get their license. Part two of the test is a practical driving test that is also similar to the one that those seeking their driving license take, but this one is tougher. The part three of the test is where you get to prove that you can actually teach and coach. The examiner assesses the student at this stage, and you get to demonstrate your ability to demonstrate lesson planning, risk management and teaching and learning strategies. The exam is tough and demanding, as is to be expected.
The task of ensuring that our roads are safe is a serious one so the thoroughness and toughness of the exam are to ensure that you are ready for it.
