1. Local Knowledge is an Advantage

One of the biggest benefits of learning with Arnold Driving Academy is our local knowledge of Nottingham’s roads. From residential roads, busy roundabouts and known test routes, our driving instructors know where to focus your driving lessons. Learning in your local area will make you feel more comfortable, and it will greatly improve your chances of passing your driving test first time around.

When it comes to preparing to take your driving test in Nottingham, local knowledge is vital.

2. Lessons Designed Around You

Each learner is different, which is precisely why we’re adaptable. Whether you are a learner driver starting from scratch, an existing qualified driver returning to driving after a gap or have experienced previous nerves or issues after a failing driving test, our instructors will amend the lesson plan to provide what you need from the lesson/s.

From gaining confidence to refining any particular aspects of your driving you might want to address, we will make sure it is effective, focused and lets you enjoy the learning process. We deliver structured driving courses in Nottingham with flexible scheduling to suit your lifestyle.

3. DVSA-Approved and Safety-Conscious

At Arnold Driving Academy, safety is not just a tick-box exercise; it is the foundation of everything we do. Our instructors are fully DVSA-registered and have a driving curriculum based on the very latest driving standards. We teach you not how to just drive but how to do so in a safe, courteous and responsible manner.

Our vehicles are high-standard, well maintained, dual-controlled and ideally suited for driving manual lessons. Rest assured having an instructor from Arnold Driving Academy means that we meet safety requirements during each lesson from start to finish.

4. Great for New Drivers and Drivers Who Get Nervous

If you’re feeling nervous about starting your driving lessons, you’re not alone! Many of the students that come to us are bringing their nerves or fears with them from a bad experience at another driving school. That’s one reason that our instructors will focus on providing a calm, supportive environment, to help you build your confidence a little each lesson.

Our beginner driving lessons in Nottingham break important foundation steps down into manageable successful steps. You will have plenty of time—you will never be rushed—and you’ll be allowed to feel in control of your driving every step of the way.

5. Packages to Suit Everyone

Everyone learns differently and learns at different speeds. Because of this, we can offer drivers a variety of packages at learning goals and different budgets. Packages available include a 6-hour beginner package, a 10-hour block booking, or mock driving test preparation to check readiness!

Our refresher lessons are also available for full licence holders, lessons after test failure, and birthday driving adventures we run for new drivers aged 17+.

6. Mock Driving Tests – For Real-Life, On-Road Experience

Are you worried about your driving test? Don’t worry, we’ve all been there. We provide realistic mock driving tests in Nottingham, which not only help you to understand what to expect and pinpoint any weaknesses, but also help you gain confidence.

With our 2-hour mock test service, you will go through a full simulation and receive detailed feedback from your instructor. Mock tests are one of the most effective ways to prepare for the real thing — and can often be the difference between passing and not.

7. Proven Results

Over the years we have assisted hundreds of learners across Nottingham in passing their driving test and gaining confidence on the road. Many of our new students come from recommendations from friends and family due to our professionalism, perseverance and results.

From novice drivers starting out for the first time to those who perhaps have some experience but need a little refresher, our students say the same thing — everyone is treated as individuals and at all times we maintain a high standard of teaching.
