Absolutely! We offer flexible scheduling including evening and weekend appointments to suit working professionals, students, and parents. Our instructors work around your availability to ensure consistent lesson progression.

Driving lessons can be booked for 1 Hour, 1 ½ Hours or 2 hours with 2 hour lessons being the norm (and most productive) lesson duration (Can be booked either one two hour lesson or two one hour lessons). Two hour driving lessons allow the pupil adequate practice time around the test areas and boost the learning process.

This really depends on several factors. The official DVSA answer is 40 to 60 hours this can be a bit misleading. Few people pass in less than 40 hours unless they have their own car and practise with family or friends.  It also depends on your ability to retain the information being taught.  Age and circumstances also play a great role in the ability to learn. The most important factor though is your willingness to learn to become a safe driver.
