What does skilful driving mean to you? Maybe it’s feeling calm in busy traffic, planning ahead on unfamiliar roads, or simply using your car more efficiently. Wherever you're starting from, our Advanced Driver course is built to help you progress - at your pace, with guidance that fits your real-world driving.
With a full driving licence and your own car, you’re ready to take your skills further and refine how you drive day-to-day. From learning new techniques to confirming what you already do well, you’ll finish with the confidence to enjoy every journey. You don’t need special qualifications or previous experience - just a willingness to learn.
Advanced Driving is for anyone who wants to improve behind the wheel.
Just passed your test? This course will help sharpen your technique. Been driving for years? Take your road awareness and knowledge to the next level.
The course is built around the police system of car control - widely recognised as the gold standard in advanced driving. While it’s not about driving like the emergency services, you’ll learn the same principles to stay safe, smooth, and in control. You’ll discover how to plan, stay calm under pressure, and respond confidently to the unexpected - developing the key skills of defensive driving through practice and feedback.
It’s a chance to build habits that last, with guidance that’s practical and personal.
