You will normally need to arrive at the test centre and park up about 5-10 minutes before the time of your appointment and wait in the waiting room. The examiner will ask to see your provisional licence and will ask you sign the insurance and residency declaration on their form. They will normally then ask you if you want your instructor or accompanying driver to sit in the back during the test and will then ask you to lead the way to your vehicle.

You can get your provisional licence before your 17th birthday so you can start lessons on your birthday. An important step towards getting a full licence is to pass your theory test. Most people study for their theory test at the same time as taking practical driving lessons. Most people learning to drive in the UK take one lesson per week.

When you go to take the theory test, you get 50 multiple choice questions on a touch screen computer and you need to select the correct answer(s). The theory test pass mark is 43 out of 50.

I enjoyed our lessons because you were friendly and professional and explained things in a clear, calm way. I also appreciated how lessons could be focused on specific things that I struggled with until I felt more confident about them. Richard was incredibly patient and brilliant at explaining how best to practically apply what I was learning in real life situations, this was particularly useful when I made a mistake and was guided how best to deal with it.
