What's wrong with the theory test, and what can instructors do about it?

The theory test is a topic that's plagued driving instructors for a long time. How do we get learners to engage? Is the test fit for purpose? What resources are out there?

That's all covered today as Chris Bensted from Theory Test Explained joins us to answer those questions.

We also have a new feature at the end of each episode where a driving instructor joins me to offer their top tip to the industry, and today it's Premium member; Sarah Baldock.
