Beginner – If you have no or very little driving experience in a car, then you may need to look at our Platinum / Gold courses. These are curated to help you from the beginning of your training to the end of your course. Usually, these courses will last over 2 or more weeks. If you need to book time off or have limited time for these courses, then booking in advanced is better as you can secure more preferable dates!

Intermediate – For learners who have had some practice or lessons a while ago and want to continue where you’re at with your driving journey, our Silver courses are suited for you. These intermediate courses are designed to help learners like yourself to pick up where you left off so you can continue your driving journey. 

Experienced – For experienced drivers, our Bronze courses are best for you. If you have failed a driving test and need a quick refresher course, then this course is right for you. If you have lots of training and not had much test training either, these courses are good to overview your driving and go over any bad habits. These courses will help you have the confidence again in diving.

Walkden has no local test centre itself. So taking your test will require you to travel to the nearby towns. Bolton is the nearest town you can visit that has its own test centre. Your driving instructor will take you there prior to taking a test.

How you perform your test and training will be the basis if you are going to pass your driving test. No course is guaranteed but you will gradually become better and better throughout your course.
