Driving Syllabus - Overview of Key Issues for Instructors

Saison 1 · Épisode 20

lundi 21 février 2022 • Durée 04:57

Link to Drive Hart https://linktr.ee/drivehart

This podcast presented by Sarah Hart, A Graded ADI who is ORDIT registered and director of Drive Hart Limited.

The session covers some of the main problems associated the learning to drive syllabus from the perspective of the potential or approved instructor perspective.

Four main areas examined in terms of the problems that can arise with syllabus management and some suggestions on solutions, concluding with some key tips to assist those new to the industry.

1. Goals/Aims of syllabus delivery - what outcomes are being sought for your training: the podcast examine the problem of being rigid in syllabus delivery, inflexible to students needs or goals, or becoming over-focused just on test preparation. We advocate a clear aim/goal on preparing learners to be safe and competent drivers, who are also properly prepared for the UK Driving Test before presentation to test. A focus on safety and competency ensures a wider breadth of knowledge and skills which keep young drivers safe when they take on independent driving. The National publications (syllabus, standards for driving and teaching) set by the Government (Department of Vehicle Standards Agency, make it clear that the focus should be on safety and competency and link to these can be found below).

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/national-standard-for-driving-cars-and-light-vans-category-b

2. Knowledge and understanding of the syllabus - the breadth of the National Syllabus, as well as knowledge of each subject, need to brief students and taking a step by step approach to delivery. We recommend that you get detailed understanding of the DVSA Essential Skills booklet and the highway code as well as the national standards and syllabus mentioned above. But more than that, use your ADI trainer / coach to provide detailed professional knowledge of teaching the driving syllabus and get really familiar with how each subject is taught (step by step). A useful DVSA sponsored site is the safedriving for life site a link to which is provided below, which provides software for PDI revision on Part 1/Part 2 as well as a shop with the main text you will need to help you in your role, in particular the essential skills.

Plan To Succeed! - save time, money and stress.

Saison 1 · Épisode 19

samedi 5 février 2022 • Durée 09:08

Link to Drive Hart https://linktr.ee/drivehart

Preparing and Planning Private Driving Practice with a learner driver can save you time, money and stress. The Government Department responsible for Driving Tests estimates that around 70 hours tuition/practice is required to get a student ready for test of which around 45 hrs is taught and 22 hours it is assumed would be private practice with family or friends.

Focused and well planned practice can save you professional instruction costs and reduce the stress inherent in supervising a learner in car.

This podcast, hosted by Julia Ann Clayton (retired Assistant Chief Officer of Police, A Graded Approved Instructor and Director of Training Company Drive Hart Ltd) covers ten key issues / preparations that supervisors should consider before setting off on private practice supervision including:

1. Appropriate Car for the Learners Practice

2. Insurance and legal costs to cover the learner driving, also consider wider aspects eg does the insurance provider have any terms or conditions regarding supervising drivers, does the policy in place provide cover for any legal (civil or criminal) proceedings and costs.

3. Communication between you and your Approved Driving Instructor - Practice what has been taught by the ADI, if you don't have an ADI the onus will be on you to know the national driving syllabus and the skills that will be tested in the driving test.

4. Knowledge of the supervisors role, Road Traffic law and Highway Code, plus key driving processes is essential to prepare a learner for test.

5. Refresh your own driving skills and knowledge, and avoid passing on bad habits!

6. Adopting the "Right Approach" to practice (right subject, right place and right time), speak with your ADI on when to start practice, and what to practice, get regular updates on the learners progress on the syllabus.

7. Calmly review/debrief your practice - record your practice times and discuss any issues with your ADI.

8. Keep driving practice calm and as stress free as possible, Agree the plan with your learner and how your going to deal and debrief any events during the practice. If all else fails stop and cool things down! 9. Give Clear, concise, and well timed alerts, direction and instruction, slow practice down! it really helps the learner and you to manage the practice. 10. Learn how to identify and put right common drivi

Supervisors - Be Aware! - Don't Fall Foul of the Laws That Govern Your Role

Saison 1 · Épisode 18

jeudi 3 février 2022 • Durée 08:45

Link to Drive Hart https://linktr.ee/drivehart

This Podcast provides an overview of the Supervising Drivers Role; the podcast is delivered by Julia Clayton, who is a retired Assistant Chief Constable (police), Director of Drive Hart (Government Approved Instructor Training Company) and qualified Grade A Instructor with some 30 years experience of law (criminal and civil).

The podcast looks at the legal aspects of your supervision role, outlining the rules and responsibilities involved in the role and provides some practical advice on what to do and advice to seek before setting off to conduct private practice with a learner driver.

Key pointers:

Ensure you understand what your role requires you to do - you need to be active not passive in ensuring driving practice is kept safe.

Check your/learners insurance cover properly. Ensure it fully covers the learner and you for practice driving. Some insurance companies are putting additional requirements on supervision of learners (eg increasing the age of the supervisor is just one) so speak to them, don't just assume it will cover you or the learner - check!

Ask whether the insurance cover in place also provides for funding for legal cover should the learner or your actions as supervisor be subject to criminal or civil proceedings and costs. Do not underestimate how important this can be, civil cases where compensation/damages are being sought can be very costly.

Ensure you vehicle is fully legal, tax, insurance, MOT and display L Plates as required when taking a learner out.

Speak with your Approved Driving Instructor on when to start private practice and what subjects to cover, where and when - the principle: practice was has been taught by the Approved Driving Instructor where possible.
