Was the trainer aware of the surroundings and the pupil's actions?



DVSA Notes:

This question lies at the heart of the PDI’s professional skill. They should be able to:

  • take in the outside world

  • observe the actions of the pupil, including comments and body language

  • judge whether those actions are suitable in any given situation

  • respond accordingly

Any serious lapses in this area are likely to lead to a 0 marking.
