Learn Our Way HGV Training

This is a lovely review and a warning about Hgv training schools who don’t teach to a good standard

Google review of Learn Our Way Hgv training Ltd by Michael Bennett ★★★★★ "Outstanding teaching! Having gone with another school in the Northwest, I had to stop the training due to poor quality teaching and a general lack of professionalism. After an initial driving assessment with Paul I could see what a proper trainer was like! Paul, is an expert trainer...

DVSA is adding CPR and defibrillator questions to the theory test

New theory test questions aim to boost cardiac arrest survival
DVSA has updated the car and motorcycle theory test to include questions on CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and how to use an automatic external defibrillator (AED).

The new questions will be introduced in tests from next year to give your pupils with theory tests booked time to learn the new content.

This initiative, in collaboration with leading heart health programmes and NHS organisations across the UK, aims to raise awareness and equip drivers with these life-saving skills.

Over 40,000 people experience heart events yearly, and cardiac arrests that happen outside of hospitals have a survival rate of less that 1 on 10. Drivers are often first on the scene in an emergency.

With effective CPR and defibrillator use, survival rates could increase to 70%.

Are you resus ready?
It’s not just your pupils we are encouraging to learn these lifesaving skills – they are important for everyone to know.

We have worked with the Save a Life organisations in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and Resuscitation Council UK to support you to learn these crucial skills.

If you have learnt the basics already it’s never too early to do a refresher course. You can find free online CPR courses and resources on our dedicated page on GOV.UK.

First aid and CPR courses also count towards you continuing professional development, so make sure you log any training you do.

Updating learning materials
Our official learning resources have already been updated to include the new learning materials.

Updated print copies of essential skills for driving and riding are already available through shops and online retailers. Our official learning app also has the new content added in.

All of the updated learning materials are available from the Safe Driving for Life website.

Let your pupils know
We encourage you to make your students aware of the new learning materials in preparation for a lifetime of safe and sustainable driving.
