DRIVER INSTRUCTOR TRAINING

Fulton's Automatic Driving School training programme is unique to each individual. If you are working full time or a parent with limited availability, whatever the personal circumstances, we adapt our training packages to suit your needs.
Our instructor trainers have decades of experience in training and provide support throughout your training and after when you become a qualified ADI.

PART 1 THEORY TEST

The Part 1 test is a multiple-choice theory test based on the following:

The duration of the test is 1 hour and 30 minutes.

PART 2 DRIVING ABILITY TEST

Part 2 of becoming an ADI is a driving ability test, in which an examiner will assess the following during a 1-hour test.

An overview of the general driving abilities are:

expert handling of the controls
use of correct road procedure
anticipation of the actions of other road users and then taking appropriate action
sound judgement of distance, speed and timing
consideration for the convenience and safety of other road users
driving in an environmentally-friendly manner

PART 3 TRAINING

The final test is a 45-minute assessment by a DVSA examiner who will assess your ability to deliver a client-centred lesson with a student of your choice.

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

lesson planning
risk management
teaching and learning strategies

EARN WHILST YOU TRAIN

Let's be honest. It is difficult to train and not earn whilst doing so.

After you have completed your Part 2 test, you have the opportunity to earn whilst you train for Part 3.

This is known as a trainee (pink) badge. Allowing you to gain experience and get paid for it, a trainee license is valid for 6 months before you can reapply for another trainee badge. There is a maximum of 2 trainee badges, which you will then be required to complete your Part 3 test.
