Part 3: Instructional ability


The test requires you to give two half-hour driving lessons on subjects chosen by the examiner. The examiner plays the role of a pupil and whilst in that role he or she tests your ability as an instructor by asking questions and making mistakes.

In particular, the examiner will expect you to explain the objectives of the lesson and give a briefing where required, provide appropriate verbal support while on the move to aid the learning process and to identify and deal with any faults that might occur.

Your performance for each lesson will be graded from 1 to 6 with grade 4 and above being a pass. Therefore the minimum you need to pass part 3 is a 4/4. Grade 4 is adequate, grade 5 is good and grade 6 is excellent.
