Protect your diary
See current and proposed test dates linked to your ADI number, then record whether you are available before learners commit to a swap.
Visibility for qualified ADI's and trainee driving instructors
Keep visibility when learners move their own tests.
MoveMyTest gives instructors a clearer way to support learners who already have a practical car test but need a different date, time or centre.
New DVSA rules mean learners manage the official booking themselves. MoveMyTest helps you stay informed before a learner swaps into a date, time or centre that clashes with your diary or no longer suits their readiness.
MoveMyTest reputation
Instructor trust starts with a cleaner learner promise.
MoveMyTest needs to feel like the calm, credible option. That matters to instructors because if the learner-side service feels risky, pushy or marketplace-like, it creates support problems for you too.
Support more learners fairly
Help test-ready learners find genuine learner-to-learner swaps without encouraging paid slot reselling or unofficial booking services.
Keep the process compliant
The workflow is built around DVSA rules: exact slot exchange, remaining changes, the 10 full working day window, matching test types and location limits.
Limit sensitive information
Learners are warned not to share licence numbers, theory certificate details, addresses, payment cards or GOV.UK login details.
Why it matters
Learners can now move their own tests. That creates a visibility problem for instructors.
Many learners reach test standard, then get stuck with a date, time or centre that no longer works. Others find a tempting alternative date that looks better on paper but does not fit your diary, their preparation level, or the practical travel reality.
MoveMyTest exists because learners should not have to pay inflated fees or rely on questionable services just to look for a fair swap. For instructors, the value is that the process stays visible before the learner commits.
The instructor's role is still critical: you help learners decide whether a proposed slot is realistic before they accept, especially where journey time, readiness and your availability matter.
What MoveMyTest does
It gives you visibility. It does not try to replace DVSA.
MoveMyTest does not book driving tests — learners must already have a booked DVSA test.
MoveMyTest does not change or cancel a GOV.UK booking.
MoveMyTest does not sell test slots or charge a learner matching fee.
MoveMyTest does not take over the instructor-learner relationship.
MoveMyTest is a separate service, so non-MoveMyTest learners can still use it safely.
The official swap must be completed by phone with DVSA.
MoveMyTest helps collect the minimum matching details, checks compatibility, shows possible matches, and gives learners a safer place to accept, decline or report a proposed swap.
How it works for instructors
1
Register your ADI number
Create a MoveMyTest instructor account so learners linked to your ADI number can appear in your dashboard. Once registered, you can review linked learners, see their current and proposed test slots, and decide whether you are available before they commit to any swap.
2
Review learner slots
See current tests, proposed matches and upcoming swap possibilities in an instructor view. You can quickly check whether a proposed new date, time or centre works for your diary and the learner's readiness.
3
Protect your diary
Confirm whether you are available to cover the learner's current test or any proposed swapped slot before they go ahead. The learner is asked to confirm that they have spoken to you and that you have agreed to the swap.
The benefits for instructors and learners
For instructors
- Less guesswork when a learner asks about a swap.
- A clearer view of which learners are linked to your ADI number.
- A place to record whether a proposed new test date works for your diary.
- A safer process to guide learners away from paid swap markets and unofficial services.
- A route to support non-MoveMyTest learners in MoveMyTest without creating DTC CRM learner records.
For learners
- Free access to learner-to-learner matching.
- Clear warnings about what information not to share.
- A private match room before booking references are revealed.
- Instructor availability visibility before committing to a swap.
- A fairer option than paying inflated prices for test-slot access.
Safety points instructors should reinforce
- Do not pay for a driving test swap. A genuine swap is an exchange between two learners who already have booked tests.
- Do not share sensitive details. Learners should never share licence numbers, theory certificate numbers, addresses, card details or GOV.UK login details.
- Check readiness and availability first. A technically compatible slot still needs to work for the learner's training plan and your diary.
- Use DVSA for the official change. The final swap must be completed through DVSA by phone.

Instructor FAQs
Is MoveMyTest only for MoveMyTest instructors?
No. Independent ADIs can register for a standalone MoveMyTest instructor account using their ADI number. MoveMyTest instructors can also access MoveMyTest from the existing instructor portal.
Does MoveMyTest book or swap the learner's test for them?
No. MoveMyTest helps identify a possible learner-to-learner match. The official swap still has to be completed by phone with DVSA on 0300 200 1122.
Can instructors see learners who are not MoveMyTest pupils?
Yes, for MoveMyTest only. Learners can be linked by ADI number, and MoveMyTest instructors can invite non-MoveMyTest learners into the standalone MoveMyTest flow without creating CRM learner records.
What does the instructor dashboard show?
It shows learners linked to your ADI number, current and proposed test slots, match awareness, and availability decisions so you can help learners decide whether a swap is realistic.
Is MoveMyTest free for learners?
Yes. Learners are not charged a subscription, success fee or matching fee. Optional support contributions are separate and never affect matching or support priority.
