Yeovil Theory Test Centre
Learners across south Somerset generally find Yeovil the closest DVSA theory venue, whether they’re coming from Sherborne, Street, or one of the smaller villages in between. DVSA doesn’t publish an exact shopfront address for this or any theory centre; the venue is confirmed once you book, and on the day you’ll need your provisional licence, accepted ID, and time to spare before your slot begins. The test itself is unchanged nationally: 50 multiple-choice questions with 43 needed to pass, then 14 hazard perception clips marked out of 75, where 44 is the pass mark. Learners on an LPOD intensive course often book their Yeovil theory test for early in the week, so the content stays fresh once practical lessons and the test itself follow on quickly afterwards. LPOD’s courses stretch from a compact Bronze 10 through the Silver and Gold ranges and up to Platinum 50, so a learner who only needs a top-up before their test isn’t forced into the same package as someone starting from scratch. One rule to flag: since 12 May 2026, only the candidate can book or manage their own DVSA practical test slot, so it’s no longer something a driving school can arrange on your behalf, which makes holding onto your theory pass number important. That pass stays valid for two years, usually more than enough time to complete an intensive course and get the practical booked in.

Directions To Centre
By car, follow the A37 into Yeovil, then watch for signs directing you toward the town centre, where nearby parking facilities are available, though it’s worth checking current charges before you set off. Yeovil has two railway stations, Yeovil Junction and Pen Mill, and either one is a short taxi ride or bus journey from the centre rather than a walkable distance, so factor that leg into your journey time. Bus travellers should look for a service heading into the town centre, since routes from surrounding villages stop there frequently, making the journey straightforward without needing a car at all. Arrive with plenty of time in hand rather than rushing: DVSA can refuse late candidates entry, and the £23 fee is lost if that happens, with no automatic transfer to a new date. Our guide to theory test costs and payment explains the wider cost picture beyond just the theory fee, and if you’re lining up an intensive course around your theory, the Bronze 15 package suits learners fitting lessons around a single test date rather than a longer run of sessions. Candidates from Sherborne, Street, Wincanton, Glastonbury, or Shepton Mallet should factor the taxi or bus leg from either station into their journey time, especially on market days when town-centre traffic builds up.
