Do I need any prior experience to attend a first aid course?

No, our courses are designed for all skill levels. Our trainers will guide you through the practical and theoretical aspects of first aid.

How long are the courses?

This depends on your availability, as well as that of your instructor.

We recommend to start with two hours a week around your other commitments. You may choose to increase this a bit closer to your test e.g. adding an extra lesson a week, but this is a good schedule to ensure you retain the knowledge you have been picking up and progress well towards taking a driving test.

Instructors are able to offer more lessons however, whether this be two or three lessons a week in two hour blocks, or a more intensive schedule e.g. 6 hours a day over set days of the week if you wanted to learn quicker.

Do you offer intensive courses?

As always we recommend taking an initial lesson with your instructor before committing to an intensive schedule of learning. Mainly to get an idea of how much practice you may need and ensure you are happy with your the tuition.

We don't have a specific intensive course offering e.g. 40 hours in one week for a fixed price, however instructors are able to offer more lessons on an intensive schedule, similar to that of an intensive course.

This may take the shape of two or three lessons a week in two hour blocks, or a more intensive schedule e.g. 4 or 6 hours a day over set days of the week if calendars allow and you wanted to learn quicker.

If you were interested in learning quicker then have a chat with your instructor who can discuss a more intensive schedule that works for you.

Do you offer evening and weekend lessons?

We offer evening lessons from 5pm - 8pm throughout the week. Additionally we do have limited weekend lesson slots, which can be offered subject to availability.

You can discuss availability with your instructor directly who can help to find a lesson schedule that suits you.

Do you recommend a one hour or two hour lesson?

What if I have some driving experience already?

Fantastic! We can help you to learn to drive and pass your test regardless of your skill level. All lessons will be adapted to your skill level, so if you have had lessons with another driving school in the past or practiced elsewhere then this is absolutely fine, and of course helpful for you.

Do you offer pass plus?

Yes, all of our instructors can provide pass plus training.

Do you offer refresher training or motorway lessons if I have a licence already?

Absolutely. Whether you need one quick refresher lesson to get used to driving again or build up confidence, work specifically on things that worry you in the knowledge you are safe with an instructor, or would like to take a few lessons then feel free to contact us.

Can you provide help with my theory test?
