The Driving Standards Agency (DSA) recommend 44 hours of professional lessons to pass a driving test, everyone learns at their own pace so this is only an average figure.
Your lessons can be one, one and a half or two hours long depending on your availability and your driving instructors.
Automatic vehicles are easier to learn in and if you have a disability or limited mobility they will probably be the best choice for you. However if you pass your driving test in an automatic vehicle your licence will only allow you to drive an automatic, if you pass your driving test in a manual vehicle you are legally allowed to drive manual and automatic.
No you can start your driving lessons before passing your theory test, all of our pupils have free access to the app "Theory Test Pro" to help you practice for the theory exam.

“Really supportive driving instructor and helpful throughout the whole process. Passed first time because of it.”
“I just wanted to say a huge thank you! Passing my driving test means so much to me, and I couldn't have done it without your support, patience, and incredible teaching. You weren't just a great instructor – you became a friend who truly cared, and your advice made a real difference in how I learned to drive. I'll always appreciate the confidence you gave me and the way you made the whole learning process so much more comfortable and enjoyable. Thank you again for everything! Wishing you all the best – and see you on the road!”
