Driving Instructor Grades - Miller
If I understand correctly driving instructors are rated 1-6 according to their ability. Does it depend on their test scores they obtain on becoming an instructor or overall experience/pass rate %?



I'm a loser, baby....so why don't you kill me?!

Driving Instructors are graded by a Supervising Examiner who sits in on a lesson given to one of the instructors pupils. This is known as a Check Test, and is mandatory for all ADI's as a condition of registration.

Grades 1 - 3 means the instructor has given a sub-standard lesson, and must be check tested again within three months. Failure to reach a satisfactory standard on this test means that those graded 1 and 2 are removed from the register. Grade 3 instructors are given one more chance to improve.

The pass grades are 4, adequate level of instruction and retested every two years, 5 good 6 excellent. Both the higher grades are retested every four years.

Pass rates form no part of the grading system.

To get their grades they have regular check test lessons where an examiner will sit in on a lesson at, I think a pre-arranged time and the examiner then marks that lesson and grades them accordingly.
