These Terms & Conditions are based on the “Code of Practice for Approved Driving Instructors”. It is important that every pupil reads and understands them and seeks clarification if they have any questions or concerns.

 

Driving Licence

 

Pupils must ensure that they are holders of a valid current Driving Licence. Eye sight test will be undertaken.

It is the pupil’s responsibility to wear their spectacles or contact lenses if they are required.

Ooosh! Driving School must be informed of any points, endorsement, bans, convictions or restrictions of any kind on pupils’ licences.

 

 

Fitness to drive

 

It is the pupil’s responsibility to ensure that they are fit to drive and he/she must inform us of any medical condition, disability or injury that may affect their ability or entitlement to drive.

Pupils must ensure that they do not drive whilst under the influence of drink or drugs – some medication drugs like hay fever remedies may cause drowsiness.

Pupils must ensure that they do not book driving lessons at a time that they are likely to be tired, stressed or otherwise distracted.

In the interests of comfort and safety, pupils are strongly advised to wear suitable clothing and footwear for their lessons.

Foul or abusive language will not be tolerated and may result in the termination of a lesson and forfeiture of monies paid.

 

 

Postponement of Lessons by the Pupil

 

At least 48 hours notice is required for cancellation or postponement of a lesson. Lessons cancelled with less than 48 hours notice must be paid for.

Any intensive course cancelled with more than 7 days notice will be subject to a £50 administration fee. Payment will be lost for any intensive course cancelled with 7 days or less notice.

 

 

Postponement of Lessons by the Instructor

 

If, due to vehicle breakdown or other emergency, a lesson has to be postponed at short notice, an alternative lesson will be paid by mutual consent. In the case of a driving test, the instructor will be responsible for any lost test fees.

Driving tests take priority over lessons. A lesson booked may have to be rearranged if the instructor receives late notice of a test at approximately the same time.

The driving instructor will make every effort to be punctual but traffic conditions sometimes make this impossible. If a lesson needs to start 10 minutes late, it will end late accordingly.

 

 

Driving Tests

 

In the interests of road safety, the right is reserved to withdraw use of a car for test use to pupils not deemed to be at test standard. In most circumstances, use of the vehicle will be dependent upon passing a mock driving test marked to the same standards as the DSA Practical Test.

Driving tests should not be booked without first checking the availability of the instructor and car.

Ooosh! Driving School has no control over driving tests cancelled by the DVSA, however, pupils may be able to claim a refund of lessons fees from the DVSA when tests are cancelled at short notice.

Use of instructors car - Min of 2.5 hours are required on test day with your driving instructor.
