Policies and Procedures

Theory Training

In-class course
Our Saturday classes are offered through the months of June to October. They are held on 3 consecutive Saturdays from 9am-2pm and include a final test.

Daytime course
Our daytime course consists of 3 days from 9am to 2pm of in class theory training, which includes a final test. Classes are offered during the summer months (July & August).

Online course
Our online courses include a theory to be worked online from home followed by an on-site class with a final test. There are 13 lessons followed by 13 quizzes that must be completed online before attending the on-site class.

The final passing mark for our final theory test is 75%. If you do not pass the test on your first attempt, it may be re-written at a later date at no extra charge.

On Road Training

IMPORTANT information before scheduling your on road training:

1. The students must have their beginners license (class 7-1) with them in the vehicle.
2. The course balance must be paid in full or have an arranged payment plan.
3. The student must have the Policies and Procedure form signed, dated and returned to our office in an email attachment.

The students must have their beginners license with them for the on road training. In the instance that they do not, the driving instructor will be obligated to cancel and reschedule the on-road session as it is against the law to drive without a license and a no show fee of $50 will apply. The duration of one session is 60 minutes. Courses 1 and 2 include 10 hours of on-road training with the last 30 minutes allotted for the road test (with our driving school vehicle). An examiner from Service New Brunswick will evaluate the student.

** Course expires 12 months from the original date chosen for the theory class which was done at registration. If the in car sessions exceed the expiry date of the course an hourly rate will apply to each in car session until completion.

Please note that the course fee is non refundable.

Policy on Cancellation (No Shows)

In-class training

In the event that the students cannot attend their scheduled in-class session, they must advise the Dieppe Driving School office 48 hours prior to the session. Due to limited seating available for the in-class sessions, if the student should fail to notify the Dieppe Driving School office of his/her cancellation or does not show up for his/her scheduled in-class session, a cancellation fee of $50 will apply since this time was reserved for this student. There is always a wait list for the in-class sessions.

On-road training

In the event that the students cannot keep their scheduled on-road session, they must advise the instructor or Dieppe Driving School office 24-48 hours prior to the session. Any change to a scheduled on-road session or meeting location (pick up or drop off) must be arranged 24-48 hours prior to the scheduled on-road session (NOT BY EMAIL - Student must contact assigned Instructor directly). Request to change an on-road session with less than 24 hours notice cannot be guaranteed, however we will do our utmost effort to accommodate your request.

If the student should fail to notify the driving instructor or Dieppe Driving School office of his/her cancellation or does not show up for his/her scheduled session, a cancellation fee of $50 will apply since this time was reserved for this student. It is the driving instructor's responsibility to remain at the meeting location for 15 minutes after the scheduled session time after which the on-road session will be considered a No Show. This missed session WILL result in having the student’s road test delayed.

The students will receive a reminder by both email and text message 48 hours prior to their on-road session. If the student is not able to keep the scheduled session, they may request a later date depending on the driving instructor’s availability. PLEASE NOTE: Our instructors calendars are booked 6-8 weeks in advance.

The student or the driving instructor may cancel or re-schedule an on-road session due to illness, personal emergency, weather or road conditions, unexpected mechanical issues with the drivers ed vehicle or as well being delayed by a final road test. Any classroom or on-road training session that needs to be cancelled due to weather conditions (i.e. snow storms, freezing rain etc.) will be posted on our Facebook page.

For the safety of the student and our instructors, we will ask about any health/medical issues that may interfere with the on-road training (i.e. medication, anxiety, depression, etc.). As well as if the student's driving privileges are suspended in any jurisdiction.

Additional On-Road sessions

Additional on-road sessions in order to improve the student’s defensive driving skills are available at a fee of $85/hour.
