BECOME AN APPROVED DRIVING INSTRUCTOR WITH MOSS SCHOOL OF MOTORING

To become an Approved Driving Instructor you must be cleared by the DVSA as a fit and proper person.  ADIs are in a position of considerable trust. The ADI Registrar protects the image of the register and maintains the public’s confidence in the ADI industry. To find out whether you are eligible please click HERE

To become a Driving Instructor you will need to pass three tests. ADI PART 1- THEORY TEST, ADI PART 2-  DRIVING ABILITY TEST, ADI PART 3- INSTRUCTIONAL ABILITY TEST. A minimum of 40 hours training is needed for the ADI Part 3.

Working with one of the leaders in driving instructor training and professional development training, we will give you up to date training and support along every step of the way. We also offer the TCIT course in conjunction with Tri-Coaching Partnership, to supplement your training. 

Once you have carried out your 40 hours training you may apply for a PDI Licence. This licence will allow you to take payment for lessons that you carry out whilst still training to become an Approved Driving Instructor. Whilst you are training on a pink licence or offering free tuition instead of going on a PDI licence, you will be sponsored by Moss School of Motoring.

For your ADI Part 3 Test, you will be assessed on a lesson that you will conduct with a current student, while being assessed by a Dvsa examiner.

You’ll be marked on 17 areas of competence that are grouped into 3 categories:

• lesson planning
• risk management
• teaching and learning strategies

The 17 areas of competence are listed in the ADI part 3 test report form, which the examiner will fill in at the end of your test.

You’ll get a score from 0 to 3 for each of the 17 competencies, which are added up to work out if you’ve passed the test, and what your grade will be. You will have gained the skills and knowledge needed for this test through your training undertaken with us. 

Once passed and you have received your Approved Driving Instructor licence you may decide to become an independent instructor or hopefully continue to work alongside Moss School of Motoring. We will continue to offer you ongoing support and additional training for your standards check tests and continuous professional development.
