It’s been a long road getting out of lockdown and to be honest, it's been a concerning time for businesses of all types during the last 12 months. But, we’re back now, and ready to start providing people with the best driving lessons and learning experience across North Wales. Thanks to a massive decline in the number of daily COVID-19 cases, restrictions have been eased and that means we can get back to doing what we do best; providing learners with safe, secure and qualified driving lessons.

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

Originally, the DVSA had said it would make changes to the theory test in March 2020 but obviously this could not happen as no tests were taking place due to a countrywide lockdown. Changes have been announced to the theory test, but these were always due to be implemented at some stage, and now they have.

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.

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.

The time has come to face what could be one of the most nerve-wracking parts of learning to drive, your practical test. We're here to put all your nerves at ease, and give you the assurance to go into your practical test head-on, with the right balance of safety, confidence and preparation.

Learning to drive can be one of the most enjoyable things in the world, but can also appear quite daunting at the start. Not only do you need to worry about getting to grips with all the practical aspects, but you also need to get to grips with the theory too. Here we explore some of the best ways to apply yourself to getting that all-important Pass for your theory test.

The whole team wishes all our past, current and future customers a very happy new year, with a FREE driving lesson available.
