We operate on a cashless system with payments made upfront via bank transfer.
How can I track my progress?
We use a diary app that not only shows all your lessons past and future.
It also has a progress tracker so we can aim towards the next goal of achieving the skills needed.
Do I use my instructors car for my test?
Most people do yes.
There is a charge of the normal hourly rate for this and will be discussed.
If you have your own car and prefer to take your test in it, then that is also no issue.
Do you have a cancellation policy?
Yes we do this is also on our terms and conditions.
We operate a 48 hour cancellation policy.
Any cancellations inside this period can be charged at full lesson rate.
Do I have to pass my theory before I start to learn to drive?
No but it is very beneficial if you have.
It will help you have an understanding of how the roads work and the laws around driving.
It also means when your instructor thinks it’s time to book a practical test, you are ready to book one.
This is quite essential with the current waiting times for tests.
