4front Driving School COVID19 Policy

Unfortunately we are now living in a world with COVID 19 and we are having to find a way to move forward - living and working with it, as it is not going to go away for the foreseeable future. Therefore we need to stay alert and help prevent the spread of the disease. To do this 4front Driving School have put measures in place to reduce the risk.

4front Driving School COVID 19 policy for students and Instructors

To create a safe hygienic learning environment we have formed a coherent policy based on the government business COVID19 guidance.

General Hygiene for students and Instructors

You must sanitise your hands by using the sanitisers available in the door wells when entering the vehicle.

-We will provide hand sanitiser or you can bring your own.

-If you cough or sneeze into your hand you must pull over when it is safe to do so and sanitise your hands and controls.

-To avoid this - always try to cough or sneeze into your sleeve or try to clear your throat with your mouth closed.

-The car will be sanitised between lessons to reduce the risk of spreading on hard and soft surfaces that you come in contact with.

We ask you to bring a facemask which is no longer mandatory and is an agreement between you and your instructor to wear it.

If you have any cold like symptoms you must wear a facemask and it must be warn properly when in the vehicle covering your mouth and nose.

Students must provide their own facemasks and be responsible for bringing their own PPE with them to their lessons,
Disposable facemasks can be used but must be clean / new
Washable facemasks must be clean

Avoiding unnecessary contact between the student and the instructor - this includes hand shakes.

Other basic rules to avoid the spread of COVID19 and other germs:

Wash your hands after using the toilet, before eating.

If you cough/sneeze into your hands - sanitise immediately if it is safe to do so ( or follow the 20-second hand-washing rule if you are at home).

Cough/sneeze into your sleeve, preferably into your elbow. If you use a tissue, discard it properly and clean/sanitise your hands immediately.

Open the windows to ensure open ventilation when necessary and ensure that the fan is set to bring air in from outside the vehicle and not circulate .

Avoid touching your face, particularly eyes, nose, and mouth with your hands to prevent from getting infected.

If you display any symptoms of COVID19 then you must inform your instructor before your lesson so that the lesson is rescheduled. If you are late informing us of COVID symptoms and it is less than 48 hours notice then this will fall in line with our terms and conditions as late notice and you will be liable for the fee of the lesson.

Please follow the latest government guidelines and get a PCR test if you have symptoms of coronavirus, self-isolate until you can confirm you are clear and symptom free or no longer need to self isolate.

If you have been in close contact with or live with anyone who has Covid 19 or has been displaying signs then you should not attend your driving lesson.

Again follow the Government guidelines.

If you have symptoms or are unwell with any infectious, transmittable or infectious illness DO NOT ATTEND YOUR LESSON.

Your germs are easily transmitted so to prevent any transfer of infections we ask you do not attend your lesson however the 48 hour cancellation policy still applies as in the main terms and conditions. Please be aware that if you pass on an infection and your instructor is ill then lessons will be cancelled untill he/she is well.

If you are self isolating, have a new continuous cough, loss of taste or smell and / or high temperature please do not attend training. Contact us as soon as possible to avoid unneccessary travel or contact.

We thank you for your support during these difficult times. Stay safe.
