Instructor Support Update – 29th January

DVSA Update
This week we have received an update from the DVSA on expiring Trainee or ADI registrations. They have published advice about what to do if:
– your ADI registration expires soon
– you were issued a trainee driving instructor licence in January 2021
– your trainee driving instructor licence expires soon

Here is the link to the full guidance – https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-restarting-driver-and-rider-training-and-tests/coronavirus-restarting-driver-and-rider-training-and-tests

Vote for Bill Plant Driving School!
As featured in last week’s communication, the winner of this year’s National Driving School of the Year will be decided by achieving the highest combined ranking from two voting methods: an independent judging panel and the voting public.

Retaining the accolade of National Driving School of the Year will continue to elevate the status of you and your fellow instructors, raise our brand awareness and superiority across the UK.

Therefore, alongside voting yourself to ensure we retain the accolade we encourage you to share this with your pupils (past and present) to ask them to vote for Bill Plant Driving School.

Here is the direct link to the Intelligent Instructor voting page. No registration is required and all other entries can be left blank or selected as you wish – https://www.intelligentinstructor.co.uk/awards-voting/

We’ve created the page billplant.co.uk/vote to demonstrates some of the many reasons to vote for Bill Plant Driving School and please find below a graphic create to save and share on your social media profiles.
