Instructor Spotlight: Nick Beaven Passes DVSA Part 3 First Time at Chippenham!
We are absolutely thrilled to announce a huge success in our instructor training program! A massive congratulations to Nick Beaven from Bratton, Wiltshire, who has passed his final DVSA Part 3 test in Chippenham with flying colours, qualifying as a fully Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) on his first attempt. All the best from your trainers Damien & Ruth, plus everybody at Blue
Passing the Part 3 test first time is a significant achievement—it requires not only flawless driving ability but also the ability to demonstrate outstanding Client-Centred Learning (CCL) and effective risk management. Nick’s dedication and hard work have certainly paid off!
Why the Part 3 Test is Such a Big Deal
The DVSA Part 3 is the culmination of the entire instructor training process, focusing on practical instructional ability. It assesses the candidate’s ability to provide a 40-minute lesson that is well-planned, manages risk safely, and is adapted instantly to the needs of the learner.
Nick excelled in all three areas, showing true mastery of the Coaching style of teaching. This means his future pupils will benefit from an instructor who empowers them to self-correct and become safe, independent drivers—a skill vital for navigating busy Wiltshire roads.
