Intensive Driving Courses

There are a few things to bear in mind when you are thinking of undertaking an intensive driving course. You should try and time your course so that you already have a test date booked. There is, on average, a two week waiting list to sit the theory test and a five week waiting list to sit the practical driving test. This is determined by the DSA and is nothing to do with West End Driving.

You have to have passed your theory test before you are allowed to go on and book your practical test. This often means that pupils are at least seven weeks away from actually being able to sit their test.

Pupils then usually decide to do one of two things: do all their lessons intensively over the course of a week or two or alternatively, they do a semi-intensive course in the weeks running up to the test. This can often be the more beneficial option, as it allows more time for the information that is taught in the lessons to be taken on board. The semi-intensive option may not fit in with people’s busy lives, so as a result our instructors offer both types of training.

If booking an intensive driving course, the total cost is required to be paid in advance. This allows the instructor to confidently clear his diary for the specified days.

Intensive Driving Course Terms and Conditions

The cost of the practical driving test is not covered in the intensive course prices quoted above.

If you would like, we can book your practical driving test for you – this costs an additional £62, which gets paid straight to DSA to cover the test fee.

You must have passed the DVSA Theory Test, and be able to present your Theory Certificate to your instructor.

A non-refundable deposit of £200 is required to book your intensive driving course.

In all cases, the full balance must be paid no less than 1 week before the course starts.

To protect the test fee you have paid, your instructor will assess your chance of successfully passing your practical driving test one week before your test date. This allows you to postpone or reschedule your test at no cost, preserving your test fee and giving you the best chance of passing first time.

Please see our full terms and conditions page for more general terms and conditions.
