Beginner – If you have no driving experience, then you will need to look at our Gold / Platinum range of courses. These courses are suitable for beginners who are keen to start off 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 learners who are confident enough and 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 at with your driving progress to becoming test standard.

Experienced – If you need to transfer to a UK licence or need to pass your driving test, then you just found the right answer. LPOD Academy will help you with everything you need. Our Bronze courses are curated to make all learner drivers 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.

How you do your test will define whether you pass your test or not. So you need to have a reliable expert instructor to help you pass your test. Merthyr Tydfil has no local test centre itself. So taking your driving test will require you to travel to other places/towns. You can travel to Cardiff or Swansea test centres to take your test.

Our main goal is to help you become a pro driver and have confidence whenever you’re on wheels! For more information on different test centres, please consider browsing through our practical test centres index page.

Merthyr Tydfil does not have its own theory test centre, this will require travel to the nearby test centre that would be situated in Cardiff. To book your practical test, it is very important to pass first your theory. We will help you pass your theory before booking your intensive. We like to take on learners who have not got their theory as we believe it’s just as important as the practical test.

For driving courses above 20 hours, we will feature a free retest for learners who don’t pass their driving the first time.
