Whether you want more independence when travelling, or need a car for work purposes, our driving school that covers Kent is here for you! A unique feature of this programme is that we take our pupils through various different Towns.

Not only does this build the experience of their independent driving, but it also gives them real life situations in very different places. Kent is a perfect place to learn to drive as it has more motorways by distance than any other county in the UK. This being the M25, M26 M20 and M2 which calculate to a whopping 107 miles of road.

You will not regret for choosing Patrick.
Patrick is a patient, funny and lovely instructor who always made each lesson very enjoyable and fun to go to.
He always takes time to teach everything and will go over things as many times until you feel happy.

The first step to getting on the road is to get a Provisional Driving License.
An application form (Form D1) can be obtained from your local Post Office but you can also apply online from the 'Direct Gov' site.
Once you have received your provisional licence, you can start taking lessons but you also need to think about taking the theory test.
The theory test is is made up of two sections : a multiple-choice and a hazard perception.
Both of these need to be passed in order for you to get your theory test pass certificate.
A good driving school should offer value for money, whatever you are paying.

Patrick has been such a lovely supportive instructor. He has been very patient with my nerves and supported me whenever I was struggling with something. If I needed some extra support Patrick would send me videos and links which I could use as support from home. Absolutely amazing instructor I couldn’t recommend him any more.
