    There are guidance notes available with us that you can see to know and understand how to apply for the provisional license. You can also request for an application form.

    We have in offer the QUICK START PACKAGE that you can avail. It is arranged along with a medical learning material and will cost you £100. There are also available the online learning materials and the CD ROMS and DVDs. Check out our LGV Theory Test page.

    Are you ready yet to arrange the theory tests?


    You can click here to book the theory tests. You have to browse through the website twice, once for the arrangement of the multiple choice appointment and secondly for the hazard perception. You can also take both the tests on the same day by booking the MC test first and then opt for the HP test along side of the appointment. The MC test will last you for 1 hour 55 minutes and the HP test will last you for 40 minutes approximately.

    When can you start the driver training? How much does it cost? How much training do you need to undergo?


    As soon as you get your provisional license, we would recommend you to get a DRIVING ASSESSMENT that will last for an hour approximately. When an instructor assesses your driving skills, we would be able to advise you on the kind of training that you would need to pass and only then can we quote you the price for the training (the price would be not only for C but for C+E as well if you are interested in the Back to Back training). You can also ask for the Pass protection service.

    To arrange for the assessment lesson, all you have to do is give us a call or contact us through the contact page online.

    When can you get a driving job?


    If you do not already have the C1, you will also need to hold two other tests before starting with a driving job. The Practical Demonstration test that is necessary for the Driver Qualification Card and also the Driver CPC Case Study Theory Test. Both these tests are necessary for you to work as a paid driver. You can click on the Driver CPC Initial Qualification for more details on the same.
