From 12th May new rules will be in place which mean driving test swaps can only be done by learner drivers, through the DVSA customer service centre.
Previously I have assisted my pupils with these swaps and although I will not be able to complete the swap myself I can still assist with finding suitable swaps through liaising with other driving instructors.
Full details of the new rules can be found here https://www.gov.uk/guidance/swapping-your-driving-test-with-another-learner-driver
Please also remember that from 9th June test swaps can only swap with the same test centre or one of the 3 test centres in the locality of the original test you booked.
I'm sure it will all help eventually with reducing test waiting times 🤞

You may be able to swap your car driving test with another learner driver by phone if you both already have a test booked and want each other's test slot.
