Whetstone doesn’t have its own local test centre. This will require you to travel to the nearby test centre in town in order to take your test.  The nearest test centre would be situated in Leicester and in Coventry too. Your driving instructor will take you to these test centres prior to taking your test. You will then be familiar with the test routes.

If you need more information on different test centres, please also consider looking at our practical test centres index page.

Whetstone does not have a theory test centre itself. You can still take your test by traveling to these test centers in Leicester.

It is ideal to pass your theory first before booking your practical test. So you should give importance to your theory test just like with your practical. In every course, we have included an online course to help you understand and pass the theory test successfully. This will give you better chances of passing your theory test easily.
