TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR GK LEARNERS.

Fees & Offers

The current driving lessons fees are £40.00 per hour, Monday through Friday. Driving lessons booked on weekends or during bank holidays will cost  £50.00 per hour.

You must pay for driving lessons 24 hours before the driving lesson via BACS to ensure the driving lesson goes ahead. If you pay by making a block booking payment, block booking payments are due 24 hours before your first lesson. If you decide to cancel your driving lessons mid-way through your block booking period, any driving lessons taken will be charged at the standard hourly rate. Any outstanding monies will be refunded via BACS as proof of payment.

Lesson Bookings.

Your driving instructor can book the driving lessons on a day and time that suits you. Advise your instructor of any dates and times you would like to take your driving lessons. You’ll need to produce a driving licence suitable for the tuition vehicle. Pupils must immediately inform their instructor if they receive any endorsements on their driving licence that would invalidate their licence. Pupils are expected to take a minimum of one driving lesson per week.

Cancellation Of Driving Lessons. 

Please give at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel or change your driving lesson. Please do so to avoid the full lesson fee being payable or hours lost if you have prepaid. If you consistently cancel without giving 24 hours’ notice, you will be required to pay one lesson in advance for future lessons. Excessive cancellations and prolonged periods between each lesson session are unacceptable and may cause us to withdraw our services as your driving instruction provider. 

Pick Up & Finishing Location.

When making driving lesson bookings, you should agree with your driving instructor on where your lessons start and finish. So that you know, changes to your pickup and finish location can be made by mutual agreement with your instructor. A request for a change of starting or finishing place to that originally agreed may result in your driving lesson ending early to cover any additional travelling time to avoid disrupting other driving lessons or driving tests.

The Practical Driving Test.

GK Learners can book the practical test for you in anticipation of being ready for the driving test. However, you must pay the driving instructor the DVSA test fee before booking the test.

Your driving instructor will then book a date for your driving test, which is mutually agreed upon by the pupil and the instructor.

Depending on the test centre booked for the driving test, you must pay the instructor the following fee:

The price includes the pre-test practice, drive to the test centre, vehicle use during the practical test, post-test debrief, and return home.

  • We deem your driving below the standard required for a driving test. If you are not likely to reach the required standard in the time available, we will notify you before the cancellation date so you do not lose your fee.
  • You appear unwell or appear to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and this may include medically prescribed drugs.
