We publish 2 main types of statistics - ‘official’ and ‘operational’.

Official statistics

Official statistics are published about driving tests and instructors,

They give information for Great Britain overall and are published by the Department for Transport to a set timetable.

Operational statistics

We publish driving test operational statistics which give information for each test centre.

We also publish operational statistics about about the Driver Certificate of Professional Competence. These give information for the UK overall.
