Common Questions
Intensive Course FAQs
How quickly can I pass with an intensive course?
Most learners are test-ready in 1–8 weeks depending on the package and your starting experience. Some students on our shorter courses pass in as little as 2 weeks — your instructor will give you an honest assessment after your first session.
Do I need to pass my theory test first?
You’ll need a valid theory test pass before you can take the practical test. We recommend having it done before your course starts — but if you haven’t yet, get in touch and we’ll help you plan the timing.
Is the driving test included in the price?
Course prices cover your lessons. Since May 2026, learners book their own practical test directly with DVSA. If you’d like guidance through that process, add our Test Booking Support service (£170) using the option above the packages — we’ll advise on the right test centre and confirm when you’re genuinely ready to book.
Can I learn in an automatic car?
Yes — every package is available in manual or automatic. Automatic is a great choice for nervous learners or anyone who wants to focus purely on passing. Male and female instructors are available for both.
How does the £150 deposit work?
£150 secures your course and instructor; the balance is paid before your course starts. Our money-back guarantee means any unused lesson hours are fully refunded.
