If you’re unsure about which course is best for you, then here is a brief guide on what to look for, depending on your current circumstance. Below is a brief description of 3 levels and one of these will apply to you depending on your current driving background. If you need us to recommend a course, then you can either use our course recommender quiz or call us on 0800 112 3515!

Beginner – If you have never driven before, or you have very little driving experience, then you must take a look at our Gold / Platinum courses. These courses will help you be confident and help you with preparing for the driving test as it helps you go over all of the driving topics there. We recommend you book early as it will give you more access to better start dates and timings.

Intermediate – If you have done some practice before, our Silver courses are best for you. These courses are designed to help you pick up where you left off so you can continue your driving journey. While the course has covered all the driving topics you’ve struggled with, then you will have better chances of passing the test and get on the road soon.

Experienced – Our Bronze courses are best for an experienced driver like yourself. If you have failed a driving test before and need a quick refresher course to crack on with your test, then this course is right for you. If you have lots of training or have not had much test training either, these courses are best for you to overview your driving and go over any bad habits, areas of weakness, prior to your driving test.
