What we teach
Four ways in, one rate
Beginner, intensive, refresher or Pass Plus. Same hourly price whichever you pick — the difference is how the hours are arranged, not what they cost.

Not sure which?
Describe where you are and we will name it, including when it is fewer hours than you thought.
We update availability every Monday.
Describe where you are, not what you want
Nobody rings knowing whether they need beginner lessons, a refresher or an intensive, and there is no reason you should. Tell us what you have driven and how long ago, and we will tell you which of these it is.
Including when the answer is cheaper. Somebody who drove for a decade before a long break usually needs four or five refresher hours, not a course.
Intensive courses
From £1,140A test pass compressed into one to three weeks. Not for everyone, and we will say so.

Also available
Booked alongside or on their own
These are not courses. They are single sessions, and you do not have to be learning with us to book one.
£40/hr
Automatic lessons
No clutch, no stalling. Increasingly the sensible choice.
£70
Mock test
A full test on the real routes, marked like the real thing.
£25
Theory support
Hazard perception and the multiple choice, if you keep failing it.
£42/hr
Anxiety-aware lessons
For people the standard approach has already failed once.
Hours estimator
How long will it take you?
Three answers and you will see a realistic range of hours, what that costs at our published rate, and roughly when you would be ready for the test.
How old are you?

How often can you get out?
Lessons you would need
40–48 hrs
The DVSA average is about 45 hours with an instructor
What that costs

About 5 months
At two hours a week, starting now
Book your theory test early: it gates the practical, and leaving it late is the most common reason a test-ready learner cannot book. Private practice between lessons brings the hours down.
Questions
Which one is it?
I have never driven. Where do I start?
Beginner lessons. It is the one most people want and it assumes nothing — the first two hours start with the engine off.
I passed years ago and have lost my nerve.
Refresher lessons. Same rate, no syllabus, and we work on whatever is actually bothering you rather than starting from the beginning.
I need to pass quickly for a job.
Possibly an intensive course, but not automatically. They suit people who already drive something or learn fast under pressure. We will tell you honestly which you are.
I have just passed and the motorway terrifies me.
Pass Plus. Six hours covering motorways, night driving and dual carriageways, and some insurers reduce a premium for it.
I keep failing the theory.
Book an hour of theory support rather than another practical. It is usually hazard perception rather than the multiple choice, and it is fixable in a sitting.
I do not know which I need.
Ring and describe where you are. We will name it, including when the answer is fewer hours than you expected.
