Book lessons well ahead, since there is only one instructor listed in Bridgnorth and slots fill fast. Practice the route to Telford test centre so you are comfortable with a 13 mile journey on test day. Work on independent driving and time management in your lessons, as the commute adds pressure on test morning.

Aim to do mock tests that include the full trip to Telford so you know timings and parking options.
Choosing an Instructor in Bridgnorth
With just one instructor locally, start by checking their availability and whether they will drive you to the test centre. Be prepared to consider instructors from Telford, Wolverhampton or Dudley if you need more choice. Ask about pass rates, lesson structure and whether they offer block-book discounts.
