They have already passed 2 tests, which included a harder version of the theory and hazard perception and their own driving test, which is 50% more longer and includes more variety of roads and more manoeuvres than the normal L test. They have also received 70+ hours of 1-2-1 training from a fully qualified driving instructor, which included classroom, in car and real lesson observations. We do acknowledge that trainee instructors may sometimes miss to identify faults made by pupils and therefore the pupil may need to take a few extra lessons, however this is very minimal, to compensate and incentivise we are offering a 20% Discount (£5 discount on every lesson) from our advertised prices above. In 20% of your lessons the supervising instructor, who is a DVSA approved driving instructor will sit in your lesson to observe or personally deliver the lesson to maintain our high standard of services, this will be done in the same vehicle as you always drive.

Testimonials
I had approach these guys for my driving as I had stopped for a few years with the previous driving school I was with, passed first time with my current instructor I was more than happy with the level of expertise and the professionalism provided, very informative and very helpful my instructor shaf played a massive part in me passing so I am very grateful 10/10 would recommended to anyone who’s looking for a driving instructor
Prabdeep
Brilliant instructor. I really would reccomend them to anyone who wants to learn how to drive. My instructor was kind and taught me confidence, one thing I lacked being on the road. Now I am able to drive with confidence. They are not unreasonable. My instructor went extra further to help me pass. They are fair and you get your money worth.
Sarra Khan: High school English teacher.
I had one of the best driving istructors probably by far. I was very new to driving, I had to start with the basics. I always felt that I could ask questions, make mistakes (sometimes I couldn't help it :) ) but he explained every step ,always reminded me what to do at the same time he gave me enough independance and confidence to be able to become a confident driver in all areas , he is very knowledgable and clearly is outstanding at what he does. All the discussions and my prior lessons I had taken before taking my theory test helped me pass. He was always well prepared for each lesson, he would gave me feedback on my driving at the end of each lesson and discuss what I would need to work on to improve.I would most certainly advise if you are looking for a good company and excellent intructor go with Shafiq. 5 out of 5!!

What will happen if I pass my practical driving test and have not finished taking the package lessons I paid for?
If you passed your driving test without needing all the package lessons, then we will charge you for the lessons you have taken and reimburse you with the remainder.
So for example, if your package deal worked out you were paying £19 per lesson and paid for 30 lessons but only needed 23 lessons, then we will charge you £19 for 23 lessons and refund you for the 7 remaining which in this scenario would be 7 x £19.

What will happen If my circumstances changes and I'm unable to continue taking lessons, will I get refunded?
Firstly let us point out that we are among very few driving schools who offer package deals with instalment payments, usually you pay all money upfront.
You will be charged £25 for all lessons you have already taken and £20 admin/ accountant fee after this any remaining money will be refunded.
You will be charged £25 for all lessons you have already taken and £20 admin/ accountant fee after this any remaining money will be refunded.
- You are not going into a contract meaning that you will have to take all the allocated lessons or risk losing all of the money. Without offending any other driving schools we consider this to be immoral and trapping someone, usually consisting of young adults.
- We can give you this discount as we are aware you will be taking X amount of lessons and therefore we can better plan our business.
- Our driving instructors will provide high standards of service ensuring that you will finish the course with us.
What can I do to control Covid-19 whilst learning to drive?
Making little changes in your daily routine habits will go a long way and 2 of the best things are whilst out and about do not touch your face with your hands and the second would be to wash your hands with soap & warm water for 20 seconds.
- If you are feeling unwell or have come across someone that is unwell, inform your driving instructor on the phone and do not wait for them to turn up at your door step because you need to isolate yourself and your household members. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/check-if-you-have-coronavirus-symptoms/
- Hand shaking should be avoided.
- If you are well and can take your lesson then, ensure to wash your hands before coming out.
- Wear a face mask, Face shield can become hazardous whilst driving as they may mist up however, you may want to discuss this in detail with your driving instructor.
- Keep windows down to allow plenty of ventilation. Wear clothes that cover your arms and legs completely and ensure wear clothes that will keep you warm.
- Your clothes should not consist of any animal fur.
- Eye contact with somebody whilst talking with them is common practise and polite however, this action should be avoided as you do not want to be face to face.
- Try not to share items like pens and visual aids in the car and please ensure to not bring items like mobiles or keys you do not need during the lesson however, if you are in need of them please bring a carrier bag where you can keep your belongings.
- Please ensure to arrive with the accurate money for the lesson, this way you will not be receiving change that has come from a third person. If possible pay for a few lessons in advance.
- When you go home, please make sure to wash your hands.

How many driving lessons will I need to take?
The Driver and vehicle standard agency (DVSA) are the organization whom will conduct your practical driving test when you are ready to take the test.
A study they carried out in 2013 concluded an individual needs approximately 45 hours of professional training and 22 hours private, for example driving with parents/family members.
So on average, a total of approximately 67 hours of driving experience needed to become test standard.
Table below is our guidance.
