Our Training Course
Our training course provides a focused, practical opportunity for you to demonstrate responsibility and positive change ahead of a court appearance for motoring offences. Built around structured defensive driving principles, the course allows you to refine your skills while evidencing a genuine commitment to safer driving.
Many drivers attend following the recommendation of a solicitor, while others choose the course independently as a proactive step. Although no training can influence the final outcome in court, presenting your written driving report has helped many clients show maturity, insight, and a willingness to adopt safer habits. Several have strengthened their position and, in some cases, avoided disqualification as a result.
Training is delivered by DVSA-approved advanced driver trainers and takes place in your own vehicle. The session begins with a licence and eyesight check, followed by essential safety considerations and vehicle familiarisation. You will then complete an initial observed drive, giving your trainer the opportunity to assess your current driving style objectively. From there, the session becomes tailored to your needs, covering:
Following the course, you will receive a comprehensive written driving report detailing your performance, improvements, and key development areas. This report can be submitted to the court if you choose and serves as clear evidence of your engagement and progress.
Course Fees and Facts
Our course fees are fully inclusive of VAT. A 3-hour programme is priced at £390 per driver, while the full 6-hour option is £550 per driver. We deliver training across Cambridgeshire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire and Rutland.. For your convenience, the session begins and concludes at your home or business premises. Every instructor involved is formally registered with the Driving and Vehicle Standards Agency, which is essential for ensuring both credibility and consistency of delivery.
During the assessment process, each driver is evaluated against twenty-five defined competencies drawn from recognised best practice in professional driving. Performance in each category is graded on a scale ranging from Excellent to Poor. This evaluation is undertaken at the outset of the course and repeated at the conclusion, providing a clear comparison that evidences progress, highlights strengths, and identifies any ongoing development needs.
What the programme covers
Which option is right for me?
We are often asked which course length is most suitable, and the honest answer is that it depends on your aims, your driving history, and the level of seriousness attached to the offence. The duration is less about convenience and more about ensuring that the intervention matches the level of risk and the potential consequences you may face.
A 3-hour course is appropriate when the speed recorded is only marginally over the limit, and the likelihood of a disqualification is minimal. It delivers focused guidance and enables you to demonstrate insight without requiring a deep exploration of your driving behaviours. However, when a ban is a realistic possibility, the 6-hour option is the more prudent choice. The extended time allows for a far more detailed evaluation, and the written report reflects that additional depth.
Over a full day, there is sufficient scope to examine and address any at-risk habits that may be influencing your driving performance. This gives you a stronger evidential position and, more importantly, a clearer understanding of how to reduce future risk.
