I believe giving an honest result because writing down that a driving school has a 100% pass rate would be a lie, because some people will naturally freak-out on test, and that’s normal.

I will give you the confidence to pass your driving test and minimize your nerves.

Patient and dedicated instructor to help create a relaxed and informative environment

Delaney is absolutely amazing, all of my kids have passed their licences first go and they all sat their licences at different testing stations. Highly recommend Delaney and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thinks Delaney 😊

Delaney will be my absolute first recommendation for anyone who is looking for Driving Lessons. He’s a very steady person who doesn’t crumble in dangerous situations having been Driving Instructor for 22-23 years he’s gained a lot of experience and wisdom. He’s also a great listener; someone you’ll have no problem sharing stores with. And thanks to his guidance, I was able to pass my Restricted Test first time! Defiantly deserves 5/5 stars. 😊
