DVSA News Update and Q&A: September 2024

The DVSA were at the 2024 National Driving Instructor Conference in September. If you missed it, or want to jog your memory, catch-up on Loveday Ryder's industry update and Q&A session. Log in to the ADI Network app for the full video.

Questions the DVSA answer in this video include...

• Are the DVSA looking to increase funding to improve the driving test booking system?
• Will we ever have a system that trains driving instructors in the higher levels of the Goals for Driver Education matrix?
• Why isn't there a system to regularly assess drivers after they pass their test?

DVSA News & Industry Updates: What's coming next month?

We'll hear from the DVSA again in December, with two more videos from key staff.

Amanda Lane (Deputy Chief Driving Examiner & Head of Driver Testing and Training Policy) will be discussing the content and benefits of the Ready to Pass? campaign, including the importance of mock tests, advice on conducting them, and the benefits they bring to the learner.

Plus, David Mann (Enforcement Delivery Manager) and Colin Stewart (Assistant Chief Driving Examiner) talk about how your driving test data, coupled with sitting in on tests, helps you self-analyse, ensuring consistency. This open and honest approach improves learner outcomes and promotes road safety through data-driven insights and real-time observations.
