For the adi Part one theory test, what’s the difference between a developing hazard and a potential hazard knowing this can help you to get a better score

20/08/2026

Please can we have an example of a hard ADI part one question?

27/07/2026

**Failed your ADI Part 3? Stop obsessing over the scores.**

Most trainees look straight at the numbers...

❌ 5
❌ 9
❌ 10

But the scores don't tell you **why** you failed.

The real gold is hidden in the **examiner's notes**.

That's where you'll discover:
✅ What the examiner actually saw.
✅ Why they marked you the way they did.
✅ Which competency let you down.
✅ What you need to change before your next test.

If you simply rebook without understanding those comments, there's a good chance you'll make exactly the same mistakes again.

Your examiner has already told you how to improve—you just need to know how to read the report.

Watch: **ADI Part 3 Marking Sheet Explained** and learn how to turn an examiner's comments into a pass next time.

Have you ever read your examiner's notes and thought, "What does that actually mean?" Let me know in the comments.

If Your Trainer Isn't Using Role Play... Then your training is officially SUB-STANDARD

One of the biggest misconceptions in driving instructor training is that role play is optional.

It isn't.

The National Standard for Driver and Rider Training contains an entire unit dedicated to it:

Unit 6 – Develop and Use a Programme of Role Play for Trainee Instructors.

The standard doesn't simply mention role play.

It expects trainers to develop a structured programme of role play that prepares trainee instructors for the situations they will encounter with real pupils.

Yet ask many PDIs about their training and you'll often hear:

"We've never done role play."
"My trainer just explains everything."
"I watched them teach."
"They watched me teach, then told me what I did wrong."

That's observation, That's feedback , It isn't role play.

According to the National Standard, trainers should be able to:

Brief you on the learning outcomes before every role play.
Become a realistic learner with specific strengths, weaknesses and attitudes.

Stay in character throughout the exercise.

Adapt the learner's faults to match your current ability.
Simulate real teaching situations safely.

Give structured feedback afterwards to build your confidence and instructional skills.

Help you understand exactly what you've learned before moving on.

Notice something? This isn't an occasional exercise.

It's described as a programme of role play.

That means role play shouldn't happen once or twice during your training.

It should be woven throughout your entire development.

Reading About Teaching Doesn't Make You a Teacher

Nobody would expect a learner driver to pass by simply reading the Highway Code.

So why do some trainers expect PDIs to become instructors by sitting in a classroom or watching from the back seat?

Teaching is a practical skill. The only way to develop it is by practising it.

Role play allows you to make mistakes in a safe environment, develop your questioning techniques, improve your coaching skills, and learn how to deal with the situations you'll face every day once you qualify.

Ask Yourself One Question

During your training, how many structured role plays has your trainer carried out with you?

If the answer is none or very few, then you're missing one of the key training methods set out in the National Standard.

You're not just missing practice.

You're missing the opportunity to build the confidence, adaptability and instructional skills that separate average instructors from outstanding ones.

You cannot learn to teach simply by watching someone else teach.

The National Standard recognises this.

That's why it doesn't recommend role play...

It TELLS trainers to develop and use a programme of role play throughout your instructor training.

Client-Centred Learning... But Is Instructor Training Practicing What It Preaches?

If you spend any time in modern driving instructor training, you'll hear one message repeated over and over again: Client-Centred Learning (CCL) is the future.

Trainee instructors are taught that every lesson should be tailored to the individual.

Goals should be agreed together, questions should encourage self-reflection, and the student should be actively involved throughout the process.

On paper, it's an excellent philosophy and one that aligns well with how many people learn best.

The irony is that some of the biggest providers of driving instructor training don't appear to apply these same principles to their own trainees.

How can a course genuinely claim to be client-centred when it's delivered to 20 or 30 trainee instructors in a single classroom or online session?

Every trainee arrives with different strengths, weaknesses and experience.

Some have never taught before, while others may already be working on a trainee licence with dozens of hours behind the wheel.

Yet everyone receives exactly the same presentation, at exactly the same pace, regardless of what they actually need.

The very foundation of Client-Centred Learning is adapting your teaching to the individual.

It means discovering what the student already knows, identifying the gaps in their knowledge, agreeing realistic goals, and helping them develop solutions through discussion and guided practice.

That's difficult enough with one learner.
It's completely impossible with a room containing 30 people!!!

Imagine asking a trainee instructor to use open questions, encourage self-evaluation and adapt every lesson to the pupil's needs, only to spend their own training sitting silently through a PowerPoint presentation with little opportunity for individual coaching.

The message becomes contradictory. The theory says one thing, while the training experience demonstrates another.

Large group sessions certainly have their place. They can be excellent for introducing new topics, explaining the ADI standards, discussing legislation or sharing experiences.

They are also more affordable and allow providers to reach more trainees. But they shouldn't be presented as the solution for developing teaching ability.

Teaching is a practical skill. Like learning to drive, it improves through observation, feedback, coaching and individual practice.

Watching someone explain client-centred learning isn't the same as experiencing it.

Real development happens when a trainer watches your responses, analyses your decision-making, asks challenging questions and helps you improve your own instructional techniques.

So many trainees that come to us don't even know a lot of the subjects - so whats the point of telling them to ask questions, when they don't know the subject themselves?

Perhaps the industry needs to ask itself an important question. Are we teaching Client-Centred Learning because we genuinely believe in it, or because it's what the standards require us to say?

The best instructor training providers don't simply tell trainees to use client-centred learning.
They adapt sessions to the individual, provide regular one-to-one coaching, challenge thinking, encourage reflection and personalise development plans.

In other words, they teach instructors in exactly the same way they expect instructors to teach their pupils.

Despite all these mass training opportunities the fail rate of part 3 is still very high - The majority of the fails are down to lesson planning.

Maybe that's the real test of quality. If a training provider truly believes in Client-Centred Learning, the first people who should experience it are the trainee instructors themselves!
