To ensure you have the best chance of passing your driving test the first time, it’s crucial to choose the right course. Not sure which course is best for you? We offer a variety of course packages that cater to all levels, from beginners to experienced drivers. Below is a brief description of the different levels to help you determine which course is right for you.

Beginner – If you have never driven or have had very little driving practice, our Gold or Platinum courses are ideal for you. These beginner courses are designed for new candidates eager to start their driving journey on the right path. They are structured to help you pass your driving test more quickly than traditional weekly lessons. Typically, these courses last 2 to 3 weeks, depending on various factors. We recommend booking early to secure your preferred dates.

Intermediate – If you have had some driving lessons in the past or some practice, you are likely almost ready to take your test. Our Intermediate courses are designed to bridge the gap between your current skill level and the test standard. These courses will help you refine your skills and ensure you are fully prepared for the driving test.

Blaydon does not have its own test centre, so you will need to travel to a nearby centre in Sunderland or Middlesbrough to take your driving test. Although these locations are a bit farther from Blaydon, your instructor will accompany you to these centres when it’s time for your test. The purpose of the driving test is to ensure you are a safe and confident driver, assessing your ability to handle various driving situations.

Passing your theory test is the first step in everyone’s learning journey, and it is essential to pass it before you can take the practical test. We place as much emphasis on the theory as we do on the practical aspects of driving.

Typically, a learner might purchase a theory guide or download a theory app, which can be sufficient. However, sometimes this isn’t enough, and it can lead to delays in passing the theory test. The theory test is very important and should be given the same level of importance as the practical test.
