Intensive and Semi-Intensive Learner Driving Courses

Want to pass quickly? Awesome, however you need to consider a few things. If you are thinking of taking an intensive course solely on the basis of wanting to pass a driving test quickly. You are not considering the most important thing and this may lead to a poor result at the end and test failure. 

The most important thing you need to consider before taking an intensive course of driving lessons is:

Is and intensive course right for me? Intensive courses are exactly what they say they are INTENSIVE. They are FAST PACED. You will be under pressure to pick things up quickly to move on to the next thing. Pupils that do well on intensive courses generally:

  • Learn best through a hands-on method
  • Easily remember steps and what was done
  • Good at practical things like cooking, construction, engineering, sports, mechanics, and 
    using appliances and tools.
  • Often adventurous
  • Self Motivated, works well to a target and under pressure
  • Relies on what they can directly experience or perform
  • Has a high learning curve, picks practical tasks up quickly.
 
If you are not ticking boxes here then an intensive course might not suit you and your chances of success are much smaller.

The other thing to consider that some other schools may not tell you is that nationally the pass rate for drivers who have taken intensive courses is much LOWER than those that have learnt over a longer period of time. Plus statistically you are more likely to have an accident after your test. There is a lot that actually I agree with in this article by Confused.com. Please read it by clicking here:

Unlike some other driving schools our Intensive Driving Courses are tailored to your needs so as to give you the best opportunity for achieving a high driving standard which will mean you pass your driving test and the chance of having an accident after your test is lower. 

Why we give you an Intensive Learning Assessment Drive first!

After an initial 2 hour intensive learning assessment drive your instructor will be able to recommend what sort of intensive course and how many hours will suit the driving standard you are currently at and the work needed to be done. You will also know from how the lesson went if an intensive course is for you and this is the key most important thing for you to consider.

Below are a couple of examples how an intensive course might be structured.

  1. For Intermediate level Pupils: 15 Hour Semi-intensive Course Over 5 days, 3 hrs per day. NB: It is recommended that you have completed at least 25 hours previous training before attempting this semi intensive course and the practical test. This course includes a mock test with your driving instructor and a practical driving test booking with the DSA. (Comfort Breaks as required) Suitable for pupils nearing test standard who require additional training prior to taking the practical test. 
  2. Beginner Level Pupils: Intensive Course: 30 hours over 5 days - 6 hrs. per day. NB: It is recommended that you have completed at least 10 hours previous training before attempting this intensive course and the practical test. This course of lessons includes a mock test with your driving instructor and a practical driving test booking with the DSA. (Comfort Breaks as required) Starts on Monday - Finishes on Friday/Saturday ideal for learners in the early stages of their learning or pupils with limited experience who now need to pass their practical test FAST!
