If you’d like us to book your theory test for you, our dedicated booking team will handle it and send you confirmation by email. We’ll aim to find a date that fits your schedule, and if the slot isn’t convenient, it can be easily changed.
As part of your course, you’ll receive full access to our exclusive online learning portal. This is designed to guide you through both your theory and practical test preparation. Inside you’ll find:
Step-by-step resources tailored to each stage of your learning journey.
Practical advice from our training team.
Videos that explain tricky topics clearly and help you build confidence.
It’s a valuable tool that gives you ongoing support beyond your lessons.
You’ll also get free access to our theory test app, available to download from the App Store or Google Play. You can use it on your phone, tablet, or laptop — whichever suits you best.
With the app you can:
Practise mock theory tests, both short and full versions.
Work on your hazard perception skills with interactive clips.
Review your scores and track your progress.
Focus on weaker areas so you’re always improving.
And if you ever need a hand, our instructor trainers are available directly through the app’s built-in chat facility. They’re always happy to offer guidance and tips to keep you on track.
We actively monitor the DVSA booking system for cancellations and earlier slots, giving you the best possible chance of getting a test date close to the end of your course.
We can often secure earlier dates by checking multiple times a day.
Sometimes this may mean using nearby test centres with better availability.
While we can’t guarantee exact timings (as the DVSA controls availability), our dedicated booking team gives you a far better chance of securing a convenient slot.
We’ve earned our reputation by putting pupils first — with personal support and clear communication every step of the way.
Driving test availability is a challenge across the UK right now, with long waiting lists at many test centres. That’s why we’ve adapted our approach to be clearer and fairer:
We no longer take your practical test fee upfront.
Instead, we work with you and your instructor to find a suitable test date, usually close to the end of your course.
Once we’ve secured a confirmed slot that works, you’ll then pay the DVSA test fee so we can lock it in for you.
This way, you only pay once the date is agreed — and there’s no risk of waiting endlessly for something that might not be available.

• 7-Day Course – Best suited for complete beginners or those with very little driving experience. It gives you extra time to build confidence and cover the basics properly. • 5-Day Course – Ideal if you’ve already had some driving lessons and feel comfortable with the basics. This option is focused and intensive, helping you polish your skills and get test-ready quickly. Not sure which one is right for you? Our team is always happy to chat through your experience and recommend the course that will give you the best chance of success.
