Your instructor will either be an Approved Driving Instructor and display a green badge in their windscreen, or your instructor will be a Potential Driving Instructor (meaning they have 1 final test to complete before becoming fully qualified, however have completed over 40 hours of mandatory training to a high standard with an instructor trainer), and will display a pink badge in their windscreen.
You can ask your instructor to see their badge and they will be happy to show you.
Legally any instructor must display this badge whilst being paid to teach. If your instructor does not have a badge, please ask to see it.

The DVSA recommends you to have around 40 hours of lessons. This will depend on how quickly you learn and how often you have lessons, which will depend on your availability. Pupils usually have lessons weekly, some choose to have more than one lesson a week, and some choose to have lessons fortnightly. You can also choose the length of your lessons - you could have 1 or 2 hour lessons. It's beneficial to keep your skills up and to be consistent with your lessons, and this will help you be more prepared for your driving test

We don't offer full intensive courses where you drive for 8 hours a day over 5 days, for various reasons. We often find pupils do not learn best this way, learning to drive can be overwhelming and it's a lot to take in. You'll lack overall driving experience and the pressure of learning can be too much. However, we can provide semi intensive courses, where you could do (for example) 10 hours a week, over 4 weeks.

Yes! However, you must be with an Approved Driving Instructor in a car fitted with dual controls. You may not drive on a motorway with a trainee driving instructor, or with friends or family.

This will vary from pupil to pupil. We strongly recommend speaking to your driving instructor first, as they will be able to give you a better idea as to when you will be ready.

Don't panic! All of our instructors have the appropriate driving instructor insurance and as instructors, we know that it is inevitable that accidents, bumps, and scratches will happen at some point. All of our instructors have dual controls and will do their best to prevent any incidents from happening in the first place. If an incident does happen for whatever reason, your instructor will stay calm and will not be angry. You will not be charged for the damage (unless you were purposely driving dangerously and ignoring your instructor's instructions). Any incidents that happen can be claimed through our instructor insurance - so it's not a problem! Your instructor will reassure you and make sure that you are ok - you are our priority!
