Intensive Courses

These fast-track courses are flexible and quick, and suitable for the majority of pupils. Consequently this is our most popular learning option.

The course is split in to two parts but completed over a very short period of time. The first half of your lessons are taken immediately, taking a few hours each week leading up to the test week. The remaining half of the lessons are given on a daily basis during the week leading up to your driving test on the Friday. i.e You would start on Monday with lessons each day until your test on the Friday.

The D.S.A ultimately dictate the test dates and we therefore are bound by their availability. However, it may be possible to get an earlier date if there is a cancellation. We can also approach different test centres to find the earliest available date if you are flexible with location, and your instructor agrees it would be suitable. Some of the selected test centres we use have waiting lists of just 3 weeks.

Single Lessons

Essentially you book lessons as and when you require.

We recommend at least two lessons per week, but don't worry if your other commitments prelude this. Having lessons closer together just means that you are less likely to forget what you have just practiced by the time of your next lesson. Pupils generally require less hours of tuition overall if they have shorter gaps between their lessons.

You can also choose the duration of your lessons. The most popular durations are 90 minutes or 2 hours. We find that one hour lessons can be a little too short, as it can take 15 minutes for you to 'warm up' and time is needed for your instructor to explain new parts of the syllabus before you can practice them.

Most pupils who do not opt for an intensive course have 90-minute or 2-hour lessons once or twice a week.

7 Day Course

These are usually suitable for learners who have sufficient experience already and just require 'polishing up'. You must have a valid theory certificate. We will need to obtain a test date and then plan lessons for the test week, usually starting Monday with a test on the Friday. For more details ask your instructor, call the office or use our booking/Contact form.

Automatic Car Tuition

Want to learn to drive an Automatic? ..... Apollo have the answer!

No clutch, no gear-changing, no problem! Just steering and only two pedals; the accelerator and footbrake! Both pedals are operated by your right foot, and your left foot is not used. Easy! You have more time to concentrate on the road without worrying about getting the car into the correct gear and controlling the clutch. You can't stall the engine when you are moving off either! Makes getting out of junctions so much less stressful! What more could you ask for?
