Material covered varies according to customer requirements and experience.

Basic

A basic lesson entails an introduction to the controls; where they are and what they do. Basic lessons start off-road and cover all basic manoeuvres; moving off, changing gear, slowing down and stopping, turning and reversing. Further training is given on the road to cover the correct procedure to deal with hazards.

Pre-test

A pre-test lesson is conducted like a mock-test the aims of which are to bring the candidate up to test level by making them aware of any faults committed and entails following a typical test route, using the correct procedures and requirements. Handouts are given to cover test questions and other requirements.
