Well done to James, who completed his Pass Plus course today.
The weather most certainly looks deceiving. There were several gusts of wind especially along the M2 corridor near Medway Bridge, and plenty of fallen branches reaching into lane 1 on the A2. Some were really hard to see, others looked liked they had been growing there for several years!
Glad you gained more confidence and increased your knowledge.

Remember we offer Pass Plus to anyone, even if they didnt have lessons with us.

When you want drive (or ride) on our roads, you must have passed the relevant Theory Test before being able to take the practical test.

Some people can really struggle, some find it hard to focus or understand the questions. This can lead to frustration!!!...
Dont let it get the better of you.

We highly recommend Chris Bensted of Theory Test Explained.
He can help you understand the questions so you can approach the Theory Test fully prepared.

Theory Test Explained (Chris), is well known across the industry and highly recommend by many, including us...

🚲 Victoria Park in Ashford is now home to a new cycle hub, giving more people the chance to build their confidence on two wheels.

It will host adult cycle training sessions for people learning to ride for the first time, returning to cycling after many years, or looking to improve their confidence on roads.

Bikability sessions for children will also run in the school holidays.

It's part of a joint effort by Kent County Council and Ashford Borough Council to encourage more people to enjoy the health and wellbeing benefits of cycling.

Being a driving instructor doesn't mean we just sit there and tell pupils to turn left, right, stop here or steer there..... Thats far too easy!

Apart from planning individual lessons for every individual pupil for their specific time in their learning journey, We sometimes need to adapt lessons to to help them progress more and understand in a way that speaks to them..

During the summer, we spent over 40+ hours each studying for an "Understanding Autism" Level 2 course, followed by an exam. Today we finally received our certificates.

We realise this doesn't mean we know everything about Autism, But it most certainly helped us gain better knowledge and understanding.

Hopefully we will be able to bring this into the lessons to help pupils have a better, more comfortable relaxed experience suited to their needs.

Well done Georgia who has completed her Pass Plus course today. The final part was Dual Carriageways & Motorways.. So we trundled up the M20, M25, A2 & M2 before rejoining the M20 in Maidstone... Some of it was in rush hour, so Georgia got some real authenticity about the M25 being europes largest car park..

We can offer Pass Plus to anyone, even if they didnt have any lessons with us..

If you get into the wrong lane, what should you do?

Should you continue to where the lane takes you, or just change lanes?
Are you allowed to change lanes?
If you decide to change lanes, would it be the safest option? Would it be legal?

On the approach to the roundabout you can see the Column sign;
Left Lane (M20 London)
Middle Lane (A20)
Right Lane (M20 Dover)

Also each lane is clearly marked

Theres no such thing as a perfect driver, and no one can know every road in the country. You will undoubtedly go somewhere that you are unfamiliar with. This is where experience can play a big part in your driving ability and dealing with mistakes calmly and correctly.

See if you can spot exactly who, when and where any errors were made...

Many pupils really do worry about the "dreaded" Theory Test.
Some tell us, that all they do is mock, after mock, after mock, after mock..
What they dont realise, is it the same minimal questions that are reworded on the apps.

Realistically, would you want to wing it and hope you pass? Or would it be safer to read and study the Highway Code? Its best to face the Theory Test with the knowledge and confidence that will most certainly increase your chances of success and hopefully, help you be better and safer when you do get onto the roads.

There are several Theory apps put there, and they are all fairly similar. The app that seems to be most popular (even more than DVSAs App) and has more subscribers is the 4 in 1 (link below)

Some pupils have additional challenges, such as dyslexia. But did know you can request additional help from DVSA? Although its not guaranteed they will oblige with that option.

There are other options aswell.
Theory Test Explained (Chris Bensted) is well known in the industry for his knowledge and helping others tackle, how they approach and understand the Theory Test.
