Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency

The Official DVSA Theory Test for Approved Driving Instructors

March 2026

New questions on teaching methods, first aid, CPR techniques, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), electric vehicles (EVs) technology, and more.

Updated questions are now tailored to the role of an ADI. So instead of asking how they would respond, they now ask how they would expect their student to respond.

New cross-references to the official source materials – expanded to include:
