Mirror use, blind spots, awareness, planning and hazard response.
Control
Steering, gears, clutch control, braking, speed and vehicle handling.

Whether your current driving is close to practical test standard.
Training Plan
A recommended plan for lessons leading up to your test date.
What Happens After the Assessment?
After the lesson, your instructor will explain whether you are ready or whether more preparation is needed.
If You Are Test Ready
If your instructor believes you are driving at or close to test standard,
a personalised plan can be agreed. Lessons may then be booked leading up to your driving test,
subject to instructor availability.
Use of a GP Driving School vehicle for the practical test may be offered only if the instructor
is satisfied that you are safe and ready.
If You Are Not Yet Test Ready
If your driving is not yet at the required standard, we will explain this clearly and honestly.
You will receive guidance on the areas that need improvement and the recommended number of lessons needed.
Our aim is to help you become a safe, confident driver not simply take you to test before you are ready.
