***New Keys4Life certificate system***

Instead of you ordering and filling in certificates, SDERA is now responsible for printing and posting them to you after you have emailed us the test results. Read the new steps.

The Keys4Life Teacher Resource has 10 lessons that cover essential pre-driver and road safety education content. It is mapped to a selection of learning areas in the Western Australian Curriculum.

Behind the Wheel is a compulsory journal for Keys4Life students to complete at home before they sit the Learner’s Permit Theory Test.

The journal can also be completed using a writable PDF. It is not suitable for hand-held devices.

Students who attend a Keys4Life Parent Workshop will be given a Let’s Practise booklet. This resource includes information about the Graduated Driver Training and Licensing (GDT&L) system in WA, the learn to drive process, and other handy tips about being a safer driver.

👉 Hard copies are not available for teachers to order. Please contact your local consultant.

Students who successfully complete the Keys4Life program are provided with the opportunity to sit the Learner’s Permit Theory Test at school. Those who pass and have a valid Keys4Life certificate are granted an exemption from the theory test fee by the WA Department of Transport. 

This handbook is a comprehensive guide to the road rules that apply in Western Australia and has been written primarily to help new drivers prepare for a lifetime of safe driving.

This is a workbook for students to complete during the Keys4Life program - in addition to the Behind the Wheel Journal. Students complete it by hand, or as a writable PDF prior to the Learner’s Permit Test. The writable PDF is not suitable for hand-held devices.

Keys4Life has been endorsed by the School Curriculum and Standards Authority (SCSA). Schools can choose one of two Keys4Life endorsed programs relevant for students in Years 10, 11 and 12.

These 5 quizzes are in the Keys4Life student workbook.
