Driving test request day off?
An unusual question but wanted to make sure!
I’m learning to drive and just passed my theory test today. However booking a practical test is looking horrific at the moment. Out of the centres I am allowed to book, the only availability is during the working day in January. And yes, the first appointment available is the end of January due to
major backlogs…
While I’m aware that most appointments should be booked outside of school time, it’s becoming fairly obvious that this will not be feasible for me. Would this be something you could request time off to complete?
School context - private school, members of staff have previously been given unpaid leave to attending sporting events they are participating in as competitors.
I do not mind having it unpaid if necessary but wanted to check this generally this is something you’d be able to request without raising eyebrows.
