I also comply with the DVSA's Code of Practice for Driving Instructors, which is your guarantee of high professional standards and business ethics, and I am DBS checked for your peace of mind. Learning to drive can be a daunting experience but I believe that it can also be pleasant and enjoyable. From your first lesson to your last you will be taught in a patient, friendly way so that you learn quickly and with the minimum of stress. Each lesson is tailored to your driving ability so that you will never be placed in a situation with which you cannot cope. Before you can start your driving lessons you must hold a Provisional Driving Licence which you must take with you on your first driving lesson. You should allow three weeks for your licence to arrive after applying although it could be longer if the DVLA have to check your health or personal details.
