David Barter Driving School, Chester, UK. Drive your Potential
I'm a member of the Approved Driving Instructors National Joint Council (ADINJC) and I align with their terms and conditions along with the ADI code of practice.
Please read and acknowledge your agreement with my terms and conditions.
Terms and Conditions.
Driving Lessons are normally for 2 hours. However, the duration may vary from time to time. I will try to give at least 7 days notice of any change.
Lessons are formal, structured and organised, planned in advance in discussion and agreement with you and follow DVSA guidelines.
The standards of behaviour in an office and workplace are adhered to.
Bullying or disrespectful behaviour towards anyone is not tolerated. Politeness and respect is given towards you and appreciated in return.
Messages, by phone or otherwise are not responded to outside of normal business hours.
All lessons must be paid for at least 48 hours in advance.
Cancellation of learner driver lessons with less than 48 hours notice will incur your normal driver lesson charge per lesson. You are liable to lose any prior lesson price arrangement and align with the current fee.
I’ll exclude certain geographical areas, due to any road and traffic features that I believe may be a cause of serious danger. Learner drivers’ safety and that of others is paramount.

The Driving Test.
During your driving test the standard must be consistently safe and competent throughout.
Please read the following link provided by the DVSA closely. It directly affects your practical driving test opportunities:
A candidate should only be presented for test when the ADI is satisfied they can drive independently, in a range of weather, light and road conditions, safely.
It is very important that you are fully prepared to take your test.
- I will not accept a candidate who is simultaneously receiving driving lessons from another driving instructor.
- Should you miss more than two weeks’ lessons in a row, your space may be re-allocated to another learner driver.
- If you wish to take your practical driving test through my driving school, I request that you have a minimum of 10 hours instruction beforehand.
- I reserve the right to decide when you possess the level of road sense, practical knowledge and driving skills necessary to safely be a candidate in the practical driving test.
- I ask that you participate in a two hour summative assessment for your driving test at least 21 days beforehand, during which you’ll be evaluated including on the day of your driving test, I may decline the use of my BSM driving school tuition vehicle for your driving test.
- You may lose your DVSA test fee if I tell you that you are not ready for your test and I am under no obligation to take you to your test. In such circumstances I will advise you of the next steps necessary to become test ready.
- A written paper record of your progress, including the number of lessons provided is maintained. You may take this away with you. You’ll be kept aware of your progress and your training requirements, to help you achieve your learner driver goals.
- Test bookings will not be accepted without proof of the booking, e.g. a screen shot or a copy of the booking.
- Test bookings outside the published opening hours of David Barter Driving School will incur an extra normal hour’s lesson fee.
- Test bookings are a minimum of a 2.5-hour lesson.
- You must be able to drive safely and independently on the road in the days or weeks before you take the practical driving test.
I will not book your Theory Test, or Practical Driving Test.
