Build your driving skills in 25 hours.
A concentrated course designed to develop car control, core driving routines and useful experience over a shorter period of time.

Plan your training around your test date.
If you already have a practical test booked, your course can be planned around your existing driving experience, the time available and the areas that still need development.

Different roads. Different decisions.
Good driving isn't about learning one familiar route. Training around Hucknall can introduce different road environments so you can practise adjusting your observation, planning, positioning and speed as the situation changes.
HUCKNALL
Adapt your driving.
See what's developing.
Town driving can bring together junctions, pedestrians, parked vehicles and changing traffic situations. The challenge is noticing what matters early enough to deal with it smoothly.
Position with purpose.
Roads around residential and built-up areas give you opportunities to practise clearance, meeting traffic, positioning and choosing a speed that suits the space available.
Look further ahead.
The A611 bypass and its junctions can require earlier planning, good lane awareness and sensible management of speed and space as the road environment opens up.
Take your skills with you.
As your ability develops, driving beyond the roads you know can help you practise reading unfamiliar situations rather than relying on memory of what comes next.
Don't just learn the road. Learn how to read it.
The goal is to develop skills you can apply when the junction, traffic, road layout or situation is different from the one you've practised before.
Keep your learning moving forward.
More regular driving gives you opportunities to revisit skills sooner and build on what you practised previously. Instead of treating each lesson as a separate event, the learning can begin to connect from one drive to the next.
Learn the skill.
Start by understanding what you're trying to do and getting the basic technique working.
Use it again.
Revisit the skill in different situations so it starts becoming more familiar and consistent.
Join skills together.
Observation, planning, speed, positioning and control begin working together rather than as separate tasks.
Take more responsibility.
As your ability develops, the aim is to make more of the decisions yourself and rely less on instructor support.
Less time between drives.
More regular tuition can make it easier to pick up from where the previous session finished.
More chances to repeat.
Skills can be revisited in different situations rather than being practised once and left for another week.
Put the pieces together.
Repeated driving gives individual skills opportunities to become part of the wider driving task.
Everyone develops at a different rate. More regular training doesn't mean forcing progress before you're ready; it means creating more opportunities to practise, develop and build on your driving.
The things learners often want to know.
From choosing a course to working around a test you've already booked, here are some quick answers to the questions that can come up before starting intensive driving lessons.
01 Can I start an intensive course if I haven't booked a driving test?
Yes. Our 25-hour course is designed for learners who want to build their driving skills without needing to have a practical test booked at the end of the course. You can then continue with private practice or further lessons while looking for a suitable test.
02 What if I already have my practical driving test booked?
Tell us your test date, test centre and how much driving experience you already have. We can then look at the course options available and the amount of training that may be appropriate before your test.
03 Will 25 hours of driving lessons make me test ready?
Not necessarily. Learners develop at different rates and the 25-hour course isn't a promise that you'll be ready for a practical test after 25 hours. Its purpose is to give you a concentrated period of training and a stronger foundation to continue from.
04 Can I learn in a manual or an automatic car?
We offer both manual and automatic intensive driving tuition. Availability can vary, so tell us which transmission you want when you enquire.
05 How quickly can I start driving lessons in Hucknall?
We specialise in getting learners started quickly and often aim for starts within around seven days. The exact timing depends on instructor availability, whether you want manual or automatic tuition and when you're available to train.
06 Will all of my driving lessons stay within Hucknall?
Not necessarily. As your driving develops, your instructor may use a wider range of roads and driving environments where appropriate. This can help you learn to deal with unfamiliar situations rather than becoming dependent on a small number of familiar routes.
07 What happens after I book my course?
Once your booking is in place, you'll receive the information needed for your course arrangements. Your timetable and training plan will depend on the course you've chosen, instructor availability and your own availability.
