We are very happy that we will be able to get out on the roads and begin to start to drive again soon. We look forward to teaching people how to be confident and safe while driving a car, so we do actively encourage you to get in touch with us and confirm your position. There has never been a better time to re-commit to learning how to drive, as it is a useful skill that will give you many opportunities in the future. It won’t be long now until we can all get back out on the roads to start learning, so it’s important to be prepared and to reserve your place with us. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

The coronavirus pandemic has placed substantial demands on every aspect of normal life. For a lot of businesses, this has meant closure on account of not being a vital service, and many companies have not been able to sustain themselves during this period. We want to ensure you that the whole team here at Progress are supporting as many current and future students with advice and guidance as we can. If you would like to sign up for lessons, we can add you to our waiting list for when our wheels start turning again.

With the easing of the recent lockdown restrictions in Wales, lessons are booking up fast here at Progress School of Motoring. After weeks of being unable to take lessons and sit tests, learner drivers are keen to get their test booked in and hopefully pass now that Progress School of Motoring is once again open and on the road. The weeks that we have been closed has led to a large number of people wanting to get their tests booked in within a short amount of time and this means that driving lessons are booking up very quickly as we strive to get back on track.

A driving test can be a pretty stressful time. You will often find that when it comes to this test, some students can fail because they make some very basic mistakes. It’s often more to do with nerves than anything else - understandable in the circumstances.

Welsh Lockdown: Progress will be back on the road from the 9th November

If you know someone who is a learner driver, then they are getting started on an exciting chapter of their lives. This also means that you can give them a fantastic set of gifts to make the experience a great one!

We are pleased to report that we are back and ready to start driving lessons once again. So let’s dive right into when we will be rescheduling tests, when we can start giving lessons, and what cautions we have taken to keep you safe during COVID-19.

The UK has gone into lockdown over the COVID–19 virus, and sadly whether we like it or not driving lessons are not considered an essential service and we have for now stopped when lockdown started.

For a long time, the driving test has been a rite of passage. It has formed the basis for young and old alike to become part of an elite club - those with the knowledge and legal permission to drive. These tests take a whole selection of forms, but they could be set to change.

At the end of another busy and successful year, we want to start by saying congratulations to all our previous students and good luck to those that are with us. Many of them benefitted from our New Year offer, bagging themselves a free driving lesson; in fact, it was so popular that we have decided to offer it again this year. Begin your journey to a full driving licence, and your first lesson is on us.
