In order to have driving lessons you must:
-
Be aged 17 or older (16 or over if disabled)
-
Hold a driving licence that is valid for the UK (provisional, full or an appropriate foreign licence)
-
It is your responsibility to provide your instructor with proof that you have a valid licence to drive before the commencement of your first driving lesson. If you fail to provide this proof, your instructor is entitled to refuse to conduct the driving lesson but may still charge you for such driving lesson.
-
You must meet the minimum eye test requirements, which means you must be able to read a standard UK approved number plate at a minimum distance of 20.5 metres (67 feet). If you need to wear glasses or contact lenses in order to meet this requirement then you must wear them whenever you drive.

CANCELLATION OF LESSONS
-
If you want to cancel a lesson, a minimum of 48 hours’ prior notice should be given. If your instructor cancels a lesson, due to illness or mechanical breakdown, they’ll rearrange the lesson. Cancellations made by you must be confirmed directly between you and your instructor.
-
If you don’t give at least 48 hours’ notice of cancellation, you’ll be charged for the lesson(s) concerned in full. In the event of you having booked your driving test, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) requires you to give three clear working days to cancel your test. This may mean that you may lose your DVSA and instructor test fee if your instructor says you’re not ready for your test within this three-day notice period. The driving instructor has the right to withdraw the tuition car on the day of your test if, in the instructor’s opinion, the candidate is not deemed to be at required test standards.
