National Driving Centre Reviews 

Andy, Sue and Lee were brilliant. Passed first time. I spent most of my course with Andy, he’s a top bloke and very knowledgeable, really put me at ease and gave me the confidence to pass. Sue was amazing too, gave all the information I needed to get going. I would highly recommend NDC!

I did my LGV course and past first time, thanks to my excellent instructor MARK.
Who had great knowledge and great way of teaching us how to drive the heavy goods lorry.
I highly recommend MARK the instructor if you’re thinking of getting your LGV license.

The patience and knowledge of the instructor is amazing,various routes with different things to learn,plenty driving time

The instructor was a vibe, he made things easy for me to understand, jokes and laughed around whilst still helping become a better driver

Just passed my HGV Class 2 test with NDC (National Driving Centre)! Big thanks to my instructor Keith — he was brilliant, patient, and made everything easy to understand. The whole team was friendly and professional. Highly recommend NDC to anyone learning to drive HGVs! 🚛

I passed my class 2 with Ndc 3years ago &today I passed my class 1 with them.i cannot fault anything they do ,from the affordable price to the great training they provide .dave was a great instructor and overall im pleased with how everything went

Ray has to be one of the nicest instructors to have as a mentor. His patience and feedback as you progress has been constructive. I couldn't have done it with out his support through the process.

On my first day of training itself, I’d started feeling that.
Yes, I am lucky to have my training here NDC Croydon.

Sincere Thanks to DAVE & ANDY for your effort and guidance during all my learning sessions over there.

It was Truly intensive training sessions. As a trainee, I’ve put forwarded my best effort everyday to go ahead for my Practical test, yes I passed my CPC 👍

Thanks again NDC team and members.

“HIGLY RECOMMEND this training centre”

An amazing company to get your hgv license with, everyone there was so friendly and had great banter with each other and really makes you feel welcome, would highly recommend. 👍🏻

Massive thanks to NDC for getting me from a car licence to a class 2 (cat c) licence, passing first time on friday the 13th of all days! They gave me sound advice and guidance following an assessment drive, which, coming from a car, was a bit of an eye opener, and support throughout.

My instructor, Mark, has been great, very knowledgeable and patient, assessing each drive individually, giving constructive feedback and highlighting areas that need work, then planning the next drive appropriately. Honestly couldn't have wished for a better experience.

Once again, a massive thank you to the team at NDC!

I left a review after completing and passing my Class 2 licence with NDC and it only seems right to leave a review after completing and passing my Class 1. For reference I took the B to C&E course for about £3700. It might seem like a lot of money but taking this course with NDC is worth every penny, also if the money puts you off then trucking isn't for you. Once passing my Class 2 the week before and completing my first days practice on C&E I did not feel confident in myself that I would be able to pass it, however the team at NDC see something in me that I did not see myself and reassured me that how I was feeling was totally normal and thankfully made me stay at it. I cannot thank them enough as I was ready to quit on day one. My instructor Lee is top notch and not to make him seem old but he has more experience in trucking than I have years on this earth lol. I could say the same about all the other instructors they really know their stuff and it is a provider you can trust 100%. I will say i did fail at the first attempt but this was not the fault of the school or my instructor I just let the test day nerves get to me and made a stupid mistake at a red light🫣.
If you are serious about getting your HGV licences definitely use NDC. I have dreamed about getting my licence for 7 years and thanks to everyone at NDC that wish came true.

The Staff at NDC made me feel very welcome, they were helpful and polite. Having a Free driving assessment before doing my course was a nice touch, it allowed me to understand what I would be paying for and making sure to myself I was making the right choice.
I'd like to give a special to my instructor Mark, he made me feel safe whilst in the lorry but also gave me confidence within myself when driving through his experience. Thanks again to all at NDC

The team at NDC are a great bunch of people who offer a focused and well thought out training environment for anyone wishing to undertake their training.

Whilst at the centre I chatted to many others who were all getting on with the training and working towards their tests, whether that be cat C lorry, C+E artic or PCV. 

All agreed that the trainers are supportive, yet realistic about what’s needed and the standard required. If you put in the effort and are interested to learn you will be able to attain the level required to pass your test.

It’s not easy, and if you don’t pass first time then they will certainly support you through a retest.

Thanks to all at NDC. Get your straddle on! 👊

NDC have assisted throughout the course with my Mod 4, my reversing and my practical. My instructor Nick and i work well together he assisted me because English is not my first language.

Amazing team
Dedicated instructors
Training units fit for purpose

Fantastic instructors.

Pros my trainer Mark I would have to say is a cut above the rest. He was fantastic in explaining everything I needed to know and also if he didn’t know a question then he would find the answer very quickly. The school is very clean and tidy and easy to get to the rest of the staff are all very friendly and welcoming and the office staff are also great. I would recommend the driving school to anybody again. I would say that Mark explained exactly what we was doing on a daily basis. I feel you have more than enough time on the road and gained more than enough knowledge to take me further in my career.

Cons I would say that the initial email is not very well presented. It just tells you where to be and a time of your day. I believe it should state a bit more information as to what you will be expecting. There is no food facilities so again this could be noted in the original email and just general relevant information. I did not know that there was an additional CPC module four exam until the first day of arrival I feel this should also be put in the initial email

Highly recommend, all staff were brilliant big thanks to ray for teaching me everything I needed to no to pass first time.

Highly recommended, my instructor Andy was 10/10 taught me everything I needed to know and as a result passed first time. Thank you so much.

Amazing! Thank you you soo much to nick
