Module 1: Introduction to the Marking Sheet

✅ Lesson 1: Understanding the Marking Sheet

🎯 Objective:

To help trainee driving instructors understand how the DVSA evaluates performance in the Part 3 test, using 17 individual competencies across three core categories.

🧠 What You’ll Learn:

• The 17 competencies used to assess you as a trainer

• How they’re split across:

  • 4 for Lesson Planning

  • 5 for Risk Management

  • 8 for Teaching and Learning Strategies

• The scoring system (0–3) and what each score means

• Why your ability to demonstrate competence across all areas is key to passing — especially when it comes to safety-critical faults

📝 Summary:

The marking sheet is your performance map — it shows the DVSA examiner how you structure lessons, manage risk, and help your pupils learn effectively. Understanding each section means you can teach deliberately and confidently, rather than guessing at what “looks good.”
