Standards Check Success breaks each of the competencies down with numerous examples and detailed explanations so you can understand what skills can be used, how to apply them to your lessons and how the DVSA will assess you.
 

Remember, we’ve done the hard work, so you don’t have to.
 
Take a look at how we prepare you in the 3 sections below:
