‘‘<br />

The standards check will not<br />

be considered acceptable if<br />

there is only one trainee and<br />

will be treated as a failed<br />

standards check...<br />

‘‘<br />

“Most<br />

courses are<br />

structured<br />

around a<br />

4:1 and 2:1<br />

ratio”, as<br />

this course<br />

is at<br />

Camriders...<br />

all standards checks must include at<br />

least two pupils. Unless our records<br />

show the ATB routinely structures their<br />

training courses on a 1:1 ratio, or a<br />

trainee drops out part way through the<br />

course, the standards check will not be<br />

considered acceptable if there is only one<br />

trainee and will be treated as a failed<br />

standards check.”<br />

Motorbike instructors are authorised to<br />

teach up to four pupils during elements A<br />

to D of CBT, and two pupils on road<br />

during both CBT and direct access<br />

scheme training.<br />

Mark added: “If the trainer can show<br />

there is a clear reason for only having<br />

one trainee it will be taken in to account.<br />

So, for example, if the trainer is working<br />

with a candidate with additional needs or<br />

a bike breaks down part way through the<br />

training course, the 1:1 standards check<br />

can be accepted.<br />

“The rest of the standards check will<br />

stay the same, with trainers being<br />

marked on the same 17 areas of<br />

competence as they are now. ”
