Test Covers

Test Covers

Test covers enable existing iDriveLeeds Driving School pupils to find an alternative driving instructor to take them for their driving test if their original instructor cannot take them. iDriveLeeds Driving School reserves the right to refuse searching for test cover if the pupil’s original instructor informs us that the pupil is not safe on the roads or that proceeding with the test could be dangerous in any way.

Requests should be made via the iDriveLeeds Driving School Customer Service Team. If a non-iDriveLeeds Driving School student contacts us requesting a test cover, they will be directed to the iDriveLeeds Driving School Bookings Team instead.
Pupils should always look to book their driving tests after checking with their instructor first that they are available, however we also understand that requiring a test cover is sometimes unavoidable due to unforeseen circumstances.
In all cases, we will ask for your driving test details and thereafter contact potential instructors, providing them with this information. If an alternative instructor is found who can accommodate your driving test, the Customer Service team will pass along your given contact details to them, so they are able to make arrangements with you directly. The Customer Services team will also advise you that they have done this.
iDriveLeeds Driving School cannot guarantee the ability to find test cover under any circumstance. We are also unable to offer compensation for test fees paid, as payment is made to the DVSA and not iDriveLeeds Driving School or your Instructor.
