Why choose to learn with Local Driving School?
The Course
Training can be completed in as little as 3- 4 months or taken at your own pace around your work and family commitments. Due to the shortage of instructors we are now offering fast track courses. We are part of the ORDIT registered government scheme which shows that we train all Trainees to a high standard.
Earn as you train
Once you have passed your part 2 test and completed your part 3 training we are able to offer all trainee driving instructors the opportunity to go down the PDI Trainee Licence route which will allow you to earn as you are training. This will give you a great advantage in preparing for and passing the DVSA’s new Part 3 test.
Course Requirements
- Own a full UK licence for at least 3 years
- Be at least 21 years old
- Not have been banned from driving in the last 4 years
- Have no more than 6 penalty points on your licence
- Be a ‘fit and proper’ person (in the opinion of the DVSA)
- Complete and pass a criminal record check

How Does The Course Work
1. ADI Application

To apply, you must have your driving licence number, any details of driving disqualifications, motoring or non-motoring convictions and any information on court cases that have been brought against you.
To apply online, click here.
2. ADI Training Process
There are 3 steps to the ADI test process.
1. ADI Part 1 – Theory test
2. ADI Part 2 – Driving ability test
3. ADI Part 3 – Instructional ability test
More information on each of these steps can be found below including details, amount of retests and costings for each.
3. Applying For Your Badge
Once you’ve successfully completed the 3 parts of the ADI, you’re able to apply for your ADI (Approved Driving Instructor) badge.
This badge signifies to learners that you’re an approved instructor and should be shown on the car’s windscreen when charging for lessons.
The cost of the badge is £300 paid directly to the DVSA and will need to be paid for by credit or debit card. The online service is open 6am – 11:30pm.
ADI Part 1 – Theory Test
This part has two separate tests for you to complete, and you are required to pass them both. The fee for this is £81.
The Theory part of the test is multiple choice, which checks your knowledge. You will be asked 100 questions, 25 in each of the following:
- Road procedure
- Traffic signs & signals, car control, pedestrians & mechanical knowledge
- Driving test, disabilities and the law
- Publications & instructional techniques
The second part of the test includes a hazard perception test, which gives you 14 video clips, one of which will feature two hazards. There is a maximum pass mark of 75 available, of which you would need 57 points to pass. There is no limit on the number of attempts you take on this part.

ADI Part 2 – Driving Ability Test
The part 2 test takes around 1 hour, and you are allowed three attempts with a fee of £111. Part 2 consists of the following:
- Eyesight test
- Vehicle safety questions (3 ‘show me’, 2 ‘tell me’)
- Test of your driving ability
- Reversing exercises
- Independent driving
On occasions you may find that the examiners supervisor will be present on the test aswell. They will not be watching you but watching and assessing the examiners performance.

ADI Part 3 – Instructional Ability Test
Once you have successfully passed parts 1 and 2, you will then be able to apply for your part 3 test.. You are allowed three attempts and it currently costs £111
You must take a learner driver or a full licence holder.
You will be marked on 17 areas of competence that are grouped into 3 categories:
- lesson planning
- risk management
- teaching and learning strategies
The 17 areas of competence are listed in the ADI Part 3 test report form, which the examiner will fill out at the end of your test.

Instructor training areas include:

Chesterfield. Pontefract, Catleford, Scunthorpe,
