A crash course in driving replaces one-hour weekly sessions with 4 to 8 hours of focused daily instruction. Skills build on each other without the gaps that cause weekly learners to lose progress between sessions — so you reach test standard faster.
Tell us when you need to pass, and we build your crash course driving lessons around that date. One instructor tracks your progress from day one, covering the exact junctions, roundabouts and manoeuvres your Manchester test centre examiner uses. That focus drives our 93% pass rate.
