Approved Driving Instructor giving Driving Lessons based in Sussex: Worthing – Lancing - Shoreham – Steyning – Ashington - Storrington - Pulborough - Arundel - Littlehampton.
There are two ways to work out pass rates; either how many PUPILS passed their test, or how many of the TESTS TAKEN were passed.
The DSA work on the number of TESTS TAKEN - so do I.
So pass rates are always a contentious subject with Driving Instructors. Their adverts say things like "High pass rate" or "Excellent pass rate" or "Best pass rate in the area" - notice how vague this all sounds.
Ever thought why they never print their actual pass rate figures?
