What this sheet is for
Keep your own registration, checks and development in one place so nothing lapses unnoticed. Feedback from each standards check becomes actions, and the development log shows what changed.
Who it is for
Approved driving instructors, trainee instructors and driving school owners keeping records for their instructors.
How to use it
- Fill in the header from your registration certificate and your last criminal record check, copying due dates from the letters.
- Add a line each time you renew, apply for a check or receive a new certificate.
- After each standards check, write the result and feedback as given, and the actions you set yourself.
- Log development as you do it, with what changed in your lessons.
- Each quarter, count your pupils' tests and passes and note the faults that keep coming up.
What is on the sheet

Page 1
Printed under the title: An instructor's own record of staying on the register: registration and criminal record check dates, every standards check with its feedback and what was done about it, then the training and pupil results that followed.
Due dates from your own letters. How often the standards check, registration and criminal record check come round is set by the regulator where you teach. Copy each due date from your own letters or online account, and check the rules where you are.
Write-on lines: Instructor · Registration or ADI number · Registration valid until · Criminal record check last done · Next due, as you were told · Account last checked on
Renewals and record checks — registration, criminal record check, licence, car insurance

Questions
Why are no renewal intervals printed?
Because they are set by the regulator where you teach, they can change, and you can be called in earlier than the usual cycle. Copying each date from your own letters or online account keeps the record right for you.
How is this different from the lesson record?
The lesson record is about one pupil's lessons. This sheet is about the instructor: staying registered, the standards checks and the training that follows them.
