Driving Instructor Grades Explained...

Once qualified all instructors have to go through a grading process every few years. The grades are a reflection of how well they performed on a 1 hour check test lesson - usually a normal lesson which is conducted with a representative of our governing body (the DSA) observing it:


Grade 6: This is the best grade possible. Around 6% of instructors are grade 6. On the lesson observed, a grade 6 instructor has proved they can give the best quality instruction.

Grade 5: Good instruction given. Around 20% of instructors are grade 5. The pass rates across the country show only a very small variation between grade 5 and grade 6 instructors.

Grade 4: Competent instruction given. A grade 4 instructor may be excellent at other times, but like many of us is not keen on being tested! Or on the other hand this may be the best they can do.
