YDS Levels 1 to 4 are four separate sessions of 4 hours each. These complete learning sessions are centred on two young drivers to one instructor.
YDS Level 1 to 4 covers all the learning styles; auditory, kinaesthetic, visual and read/write. Practical driving skills are developed through shared learning in the car and the instructor develops peer learning through effective Q&A. The DVSA hazard video clips are explored on the classroom computer and the young drivers are involved in a classroom based interactive presentation led by the instructor which centres on the science of driving. Self assessment and peer feedback supports the complete learning experience.
This early learning programme is ideally suited to young people age 13 upwards, as skills and knowledge develop in preparation for road based lessons at age 17.
