First-time pass

I had a very positive experience with this driving school. This is thanks to my instructor Simon, who was very good at building my confidence, refining my skills and all-round turning me into a good driver. He is a fantastic tutor and is very skilled at teaching while keeping it relaxed. Thanks to Simon, I was able to pass my driving test first time. Thank you!

Hi, we are Apex Driving School NOT Apex Driving Ltd. This company has scammed you. You MUST report them to Action Fraud a government website. Telephone 0300 123 2040. You will need to then report it to your bank or credit card company to try and get a refund. This is not your fault but it is real and you must report so that the scam site can be shut down. Thank you. Mel. Apex Driving School

The best instructor!

Gary has been the best instructor! He helped me pass my test first time on Monday and it has been a pleasure learning with him. I have always had really fun and safe lessons and had such a laugh throughout. Gary is very patient and calm and he has been great at easing my nerves. Gary has really helped me to feel confident in my driving and I can’t recommend him enough. Thank you so much!

First Time Passer!

My son just passed his automatic driving test, first time through Apex. His instructor, David, was very reliable and informative. He talked through all aspects of the test and was available/flexible on lessons when we got near the test date.
We would highly recommend David as an excellent instructor. Thanks so much 👏🏻

I had a great experience

I had an amazing experience with my driving instructor Usman from the very beginning, he made me feel at ease as he was patient and calm. He was always willing to answer any questions I had, no matter how small, which really helped build my confidence. He never overcomplicated things and made sure I understood everything before moving on. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great instructor!

Highly recommend!

Simon was my driving instructor. He was friendly and patient and explained everything really clearly. I feel like he taught me how to drive and not just pass my test. Simon also tried hard to fit around my school timetable and he fitted in extra lessons when the test came around. I passed first time! I would definitely recommend him.
