Effective Questioning Techniques

Explore the different types of questions used in great driving lessons, when to ask them, when to remain silent and what “digging deeper” really means.

This workshop will help you:

• Choose questions with purpose – use different question types to check understanding and encourage pupils to think for themselves.
• Improve your timing – recognise when to ask, when to listen and when to give pupils space to concentrate and reflect.
• Dig deeper with confidence – use follow-up questions to move beyond surface-level answers, understand your pupil’s thinking and identify the support they need.
