Stage Three – Instructional Ability Test.

 

Stage Three examines the ability of the Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) candidate to deliver tuition/coaching to the novice driver relevant to the level of skill and experience of the driver/rider. You will be assessed on your ability to observe and correct any errors and maintain a safe controlled learning environment.

The Stage Three test is split into two parts in which the RSA examiner will take on the role of a Phase 1 and a Phase 2 pupil.

  • Phase 1 – pupils are either beginners or partly trained, either they have not driven a car before or have taken a few driving lessons previously.
  • Phase 2 – pupils are deemed to be trained and are ready to take their Driving Test. Alternatively, a Phase 2 pupil may have just failed the Driving Test.
 

Your RSA examiner will explain before each part of the test which type of pupil s/he will be simulating and the Pre-Set Test selected.

On our Stage Three course you’ll acquire the instructional standards and the practical skills you’ll need in order to successfully pass this test. All your training manuals will be included in course fee.

You will be given tasks and exercises to complete between training sessions as an aid to skills development. The more work you can do between training sessions the more benefit you will get from in car or on bike training.

EARN AS YOU LEARN!

Having successfully passed your Stage 2 you may apply for a RSA Trainee Licence in order to gain experience and develop your teaching skills by teaching pupils before taking your Stage 3. This licence lasts up to 6 months, during which time your Bootcamp Driving School instructor will be available to provide additional training required by the RSA as part of this scheme.

A major benefit of the Trainee Licence is that you can legally deliver paid for tuition and gain an income as you complete your training
