“Within your role as a driving instructor, you can potentially work with under 18’s as well as vulnerable adults. You will need to be sensitive to any issues that may arise during lessons and take appropriate action if you feel it necessary, including stopping the lesson.
We do have a full safeguarding policy available to view.
You must also create an environment where everybody is treated fairly and respectfully, being mindful of various cultural and societal differences. As an example, some people may be adverse to handshaking, whereas some may well expect it as a formal introduction. Sensitivity to these issues creates an inclusive environment.”
