Beginner – If you have no driving experience and are eager to learn how to drive, then look at our Gold / Platinum range of courses. These courses are suitable for novice learners who are keen to start on the right path of driving. These courses are designed to help you pass your driving test quicker than conventional weekly driving lessons. Usually, these courses can take up to 2 – 3 weeks depending on a few circumstances that require you to book time off or be available for a good portion of the day.

Intermediate – For confident enough learners who have had approximately 20 hours of driving experience, our Silver courses are suited for you. This course will help close the gap between where you’re currently driving and becoming test standards.

Experienced – If you need to pass your driving test as soon as possible, you definitely found the right answer. LPOD Academy will help you with your journey in obtaining your licence. Book with our Bronze courses that are curated to make all learner drivers like yourself be test standard before they go to test. We can book in the hours around your schedule and book your practical test for the end of your course too.

Taking your driving test will require you to travel to other places/towns as Barrhead has no local test centre itself. You can still take your test to the nearby test centre that would be situated in Greenock or Ayr.

Our main goal with every intensive driving lesson is to help you become a pro driver and obtain confidence when you’re on wheels! For more information about the different test centres, please consider browsing through our practical test centres index page.

Passing your theory test is the first step in your driving journey. Without it, taking a practical test is impossible. We are putting as much emphasis on the theory as we do on the practical.

Typically, a learner will purchase a theory guide or download a theory app and that would be enough. But sometimes it won’t suffice and it can lead to not passing the theory test in any desirable time frames.

So as part of all our intensive driving courses in Barrhead, you can access our free theory course included with all bookings. It’s a video-based theory course to help you become more confident with the theory test! When taking your test, you can go to the nearest test centre such as Greenock as Barrhead does not have its own test centre.
