Welcome to the UK’s premier event for driving instructors. You’ve made a wise choice.

Thank you for coming along to The Driving Instructor Convention, in association with Dash Instructor Cover. We’ve put together an action-packed programme featuring a dozen sessions delivered by a wide range of expert speakers. Each topic is designed to challenge your thinking, build your industry knowledge, and help sharpen your skills as a driving instructor.

This morning’s programme includes a mix of practical and insightful training content, including a look at the rapidly evolving world of AI and what it could mean for instructors. We’re also pleased to welcome the DVSA team, who will take centre stage before lunch with a specially extended session featuring three presenters and plenty of time for questions and discussion.

In the afternoon, the focus returns to instructor development, alongside expert insight from three highly respected road safety specialists. The day will then conclude with an inspiring motivational speaker to leave you energised and ready for the challenges ahead. You won’t want to miss that.

Today is also about connecting with fellow instructors. We hope you enjoy the opportunity to network, share ideas, and build new relationships throughout the day.

Today wouldn’t be possible without the support of our sponsors. A huge thank you to our headline sponsor, Dash Instructor Cover, offering affordable insurance designed specifically for driving instructors. Pass N Go Driving School continue as our Gold sponsor and have brought their racing car simulator, with prizes up for grabs. We’re also delighted to welcome ADI TAB as our new Gold sponsor.

There are over 25 exhibitors here today, many offering special deals available exclusively at the event.

Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to be here. From all of us at Intelligent Instructor and ADINJC, we hope you have a fantastic day.

Caitlin’s Campaign - Demanding answers for young driver safety Sharron Huddleston Road Safety Campaigner, Caitlin’s Campaign

Biography

Sharron Huddleston, Road Safety Campaigner and founder of Caitlin’s Campaign, highlights repeated missed opportunities by Government to introduce this life-saving reform. She also outlines her ongoing work raising awareness of the risks faced by young novice drivers, while campaigning for the GDL elements proven to save the most lives.

Session

What will be the five take outs from this session?

1. How personal tragedy became a national campaign for change.

2. Evidence of GDL success in other countries.

3. Support from five coroners for reform.

4. The new Protect Young Drivers website.

5. Why decades of Government inaction remain a serious concern.

Sharron’s 18 year old daughter, Caitlin, was tragically killed as a passenger in a car crash on a rural road in Cumbria in July 2017, after the ‘inexperienced’ teenage driver lost control of the vehicle on a wet bend in the road. Since 2018 Sharron has tirelessly campaigned for the introduction of Graduated Driving Licensing (GDL).

This session explains how elements of a (GDL) system could prevent deaths like that of Caitlin, who was tragically killed as a young passenger. At her inquest, the coroner agreed that GDL measures may have saved her life and issued a Preventing Future Deaths report to the Department for Transport recommending nationwide implementation.
