Schedule Your Course Around Your Practical Test

Flexible Intensive Course Booking

Schedule Your Course Around Your Practical Test

Book your intensive driving course before or after securing your practical test. Once your test is arranged, we work to align your course with your test date so your training leads towards the day that matters.

No Practical Test Yet? You Can Still Book Your Course.

You do not need to wait until you have secured a practical driving test before booking your intensive course with us.

If you choose to schedule your course around your practical test and do not have a test booked yet, your course remains on an open date while you arrange your test. Once your practical test is confirmed, you provide us with the details so we can work on arranging your course around it.

Book your course first. Arrange your practical test. Then we align your training.

This option is designed for learners who want their intensive course planned around their practical test rather than selecting a fixed course week in advance.

How Does This Booking Option Work?

01

Book Your Course

Choose the intensive course that suits your previous driving experience and select the option to schedule it around your practical test.

02

Secure Your Practical Test

If you do not already have a test, you can work on securing a suitable practical test while your course remains on an open date.

03

Send Us Your Test Details

Once booked, provide your practical test date, time and test centre so we have the information needed to align your course.

04

We Arrange Your Course

Your course is then arranged around your practical test with a suitable fully qualified driving instructor.

Already Have a Practical Test Booked?

You can use this booking option if your practical test is already arranged. Enter the date, time and test centre when you make your course booking so we can use those details when arranging your training.

Test Already Booked

Book your course and provide your practical test details during the booking process. We can then work on matching the course arrangements to the test you already hold.

No Test Booked Yet

Book the course first and leave the date open. Once you secure your practical test, send us the details and we can move forward with arranging your course.

We Help With the Practical Test Process

Choosing this option does not mean you are left to work everything out by yourself. We provide practical test booking guidance to help you understand the process and plan suitable dates around your course.

Guidance through the practical test booking process.
Help considering suitable test dates and test centres.
Guidance to help you secure the practical test your course will be arranged around.
Course planning around the practical test you secure.
You remain in control of your DVSA booking.

Under current DVSA rules, the learner makes and manages their own practical driving test booking. Our role is to provide guidance and arrange your course around the practical test details you provide.

Why Choose Schedule Around Your Test?

This is the better option when your priority is having your intensive training planned around a practical test rather than committing to a particular course week first.

Your course date remains open until your practical test is arranged.
You can also use the option when you already have a test booked.
Your training is planned with your practical test date in mind.

Which Booking Option Should I Choose?

Both options let you book your intensive driving course before you have a practical test, but they work differently. Choose the option that matches what matters most to you.

What Happens After You Book?

If you already have a practical test booked, we can begin working from the test information supplied with your booking. If you do not, your booking remains open while you arrange your practical test.

Once the test details are confirmed, we work on arranging your course with an instructor who can provide the required training around your practical test arrangements. Your driving hours are scheduled with your instructor before your course begins.

Your selected booking option determines how your course is processed.

If you would rather choose a specific course week first instead of arranging your training around a practical test, our Dedicated Course Week option is designed for that.

Schedule Around Your Test FAQs

Can I book an intensive course without a practical test?

Yes. You can book your course first. If you select Schedule Your Course Around Your Practical Test, your course remains on an open date until you have arranged your practical test and provided us with the details.

What if I already have my practical test booked?

You can still choose this option. Enter your practical test date, time and test centre when booking so we can use the information when arranging your course.

Do I choose a course week when I book?

No. This option is specifically for learners who want their course arranged around their practical test. If you want to select a particular course week when booking, choose the Dedicated Course Week option instead.

Will you book my practical test for me?

No. Current DVSA rules require the learner to make and manage their own practical car driving test booking. We provide guidance through the process and arrange your course around the test details you secure.

What happens if I cannot find a practical test straight away?

Your course remains on an open date while you continue working on securing your practical test. You can use the guidance and practical test support available to you through OWDC during this process.

What happens if my practical test date changes?

Tell us as soon as your practical test arrangements change. Course arrangements depend on the test details and instructor availability, so it is important that we have your current information.

When will my driving hours be arranged?

Your driving hours are arranged with your instructor before the course begins. Intensive courses are normally delivered in structured blocks over consecutive training days, depending on the course booked and your arrangements.
