Craig Baker Driver Training (Nationwide HGV & PCV Training) Reviews 172

I had a really down to earth but very helpful and informative experience with all at Craig bakers . I went from car to class 1 in a week and passed with only one minor a near perfect score . Thank you to all the team

I’d had 4 driving instructors before Craig, I could never build any confidence and had major anxiety with driving. That all changed after booking an intensive course with Craig. He made me feel so relaxed and confident! The way he explained things made them seem so easy even the things I’d been struggling with in the past (reversing two car lengths). Very patient and reassuring which was really important for me! 100% recommend to anyone especially those anxious about driving.

I used Craig Baker to first pass my driving test. He was fantastic from start to finish, so good that I passed first time. I've recommended him countless times since.

A few years later I was looking to get my Class 1 licence and I again reached out to Craig and his team. Kerry was great with getting me booked in and all of the paperwork filled in. I was in and learning in a matter of weeks. Again, I passed first time.

I'm now looking for further qualifications and I would never go anywhere else. Looking for any form of driver training, use Craig Baker Driver Training. They're the best!

Really great experience learning to drive a HGV. A well thought out process of how to adapt to driving something so big step by step, a good mix of guys with caring approaches to teaching n good you go out with each one to see the subtle difference in handling a HGV Throughout the course every little thing I did was commented on helping me to learn as I was going through positive reinforcement.
I would highly recommend craig baker and have done to several friends already

If your looking at this then you are looking to start driver training. LOOK NO FURTHER...This company is Absolutely EXCELLENT. My journey was from HGV Class 2 (C) to HGV Class 1 (C + E) however, I had not driven for over 20 years so I had forgotten most of the basics. I had 3 tutors over my training period to allow me to learn different experiences and learn the way that best suited me. Mark and Rob had me doing reversing and got me started and I had Dean who took me on the road right to the very end until I passed my test first time. Although i was extremely nervous at the beginning, the instruction given to me was amazing and very straight forward and easy to follow and they made me feel comfortable throughout the whole experince. Dean whilst being assertive and very knowledgeable about his stuff got me on numerous occasions to feel calm and more confident about myself and gave me the much needed support to carry on and to remain professional at all times even going out of his way to make sure that i was ready for my test on a minutes notice 😁. Being under his tuition was privilige and there was never a moment where I did not feel safe or unsure about what I needed to do. To be fair all these insructors are absolutely Fantastic and come Highly Recomended by me, the boss Craig often came down to have a chat and to see how i was getting on,which was nice and the receptinist Kerry and Rebecca where always on hand to point me in the right direction and get my lessons and test booked.
If you can get with these guys "Do it" if you can get booked in...they are extremely busy which is no surprise. Again to All my instructors and All the guys at Craig Baker, I cannot recommend and Thank you enough, very knowledgeable, professional, and most of all, you all go out your way so that I had the Best possible experience whilst training.
THANKS and keep up the Excellent work.

Craig helped me pass first time! His knowledge and patience with myself was like no other, i felt so comfortable behind the wheel!

I passed my c+e and initial driver cpc with Craig Baker in October 2022 and found their method of training to be very intuitive made the whole experience feel a breeze. I enjoyed every minute of my training and I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking to get into acquiring their HGV license, these guys are brilliant and will help you build your confidence and get you on the road.

I did my C+E licence with this company and they were great. I had a variety of instructors, all of whom were very professional and each gave me separate pieces of advice and tips to which I still use and think of on the daily nearly 10 months on. I am so grateful for each of the instructors as now I'm doing the career I've always wanted. I would highly recommend Craig Baker and his team

Very Good Prices great and highly skilled instructors done car to to C+E fast on first time. This could not be done with out Lee and Andreas as i spent most of my lessons with them both great and highly skilled well recommended for any even cars or bikes not just lorry.

There's a reason these guys have a five star rating on their profile and it's because they truly deserve it.

The only reason I chose to come to Craig Baker was due to their reviews both on here and on Google. other companies were an option but the reviews on here blew all the other schools clean out of the water.

Craig bakers pricing is very competitive but still the cheapest I found by a clean mile.

At first due to the package I chose I thought it would reflect in the actual training but I was wrong in so many levels.

The fleet of vehicles are all in tip top clean condition and all relatively modern.

Nothing is to much for the guys and girls at Craig Baker from the driving instructors down to the admin staff they all are a true credit to the world of training, especially Kerry for having to put up with my constant telephone calls and emails regarding silly little questions I could have found the answers to on Google.

Dean has a very good and patient approach to how he teaches and trains pupils. if the penny doesnt drop first time he will persevere until it does and you never feel under pressure or silly.

Another credit to the school is Dan thank you again for having the faith, belief and the guidance to get a very nervous me through my reverse exercise the way you taught me was perfect.

I could sing the praises for a lifetime but honestly try them for yourself you won't be dissapointed....

Friendly and patient instructors! I was not easy work for them, jumping straight to C1, but can say they done a great job with me! Top class driving school, From own experience I would recommend anytime!
