The Approved Driving Instructor Part 1 test – Driving Theory
The ADI part 1 test can be taken at a theory test centre of your choice.
The test consists of 100 multiple choice questions on Driving Theory and the Highway Code, which must be completed within 90 minutes. The questions are divided into four bands. A score of 80% or more must be achieved in each band, together with a score of 85% or more overall to attain a pass.
In addition, a Hazard Perception test must then be undertaken, where a minimum score of 57 out of a possible 75 points is required to achieve a pass.
An unlimited number of attempts to pass the Part 1 test are allowed, although the £80 fee is required for every attempt.
The Approved Driving Instructor Part 2 test – Driving Ability
The ADI Part 2 test is conducted by a DSA Supervising Examiner, at candidate’s choice Test Centre location.
The first part is an eyesight test, requiring a car number plate being read from a distance of 90 feet.
The test itself then follows, as an assessment of the candidate’s driving over a nominal one hour period driving in a variety of situations and routes.
There is a maximum of 3 attempts allowed to pass the Part 2 examination, with a fee of £99 payable for each attempt.
The Approved Driving Instructor Part 1 test – Teaching Ability
The ADI Part 3 test is conducted by a DSA Supervising Examiner, but unlike Part 2 is not conducted at a Test Centre, but starting from a location of the candidate’s choice. The test itself is an assessment of driving instruction over a nominal one hour period with the examiner undertaking two role plays. In the first role, the examiner plays the role of a driving novice, and in the second the examiner plays the role of a pupil who is ready for their driving test.
As with Part 2, there is a maximum of 3 attempts allowed to pass the Part 3 examination, with the exam fee payable for each attempt.
Time Limits
Both the Part 2 and Part 3 tests must be passed within 2 years of the Part 1 test being passed.
