South Ockendon, while lacking its own local test centre, offers convenient alternatives for individuals seeking to take their driving tests. Nearby towns like Basildon and Sidcup host their own test centres, providing accessible options for test-takers from South Ockendon.

These test centres offer the necessary facilities and infrastructure for conducting driving tests, ensuring a seamless experience for candidates. Despite the absence of a local centre, aspiring drivers can still pursue their licensing goals with ease by availing themselves of these nearby testing facilities.

South Ockendon does not have its own theory test centre, this will require travel to the nearby test centre that would be situated in Basildon. 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.

We will feature a free retest for learners who don’t pass their driving the first time. This will be offered for driving courses above 20 hours.
