Your instructor will choose suitable practice areas for your level. A test centre is not guaranteed until a DVSA booking is confirmed.

Questions about local lesson availability

Where do you offer driving lessons?

We arrange driving lessons throughout Greater Manchester and surrounding areas. Our areas directory highlights some of the places we cover; it is not a complete list. Send us your postcode, preferred gearbox and lesson times so we can check instructor availability.

Can my lesson start at home, work or college?

Tell us your preferred pick-up postcode and where you would like the lesson to finish. The meeting point and any different start or finish locations must be agreed with your instructor; they depend on coverage, timing and a safe place to meet.

What if my postcode is not listed?

Ask NextPass before paying. We will check whether we can arrange suitable tuition; a nearby town does not confirm coverage for every postcode. If we can only introduce you to an independent instructor, agree who you are booking with and who receives your payment before going ahead.

More questions? Read our all FAQs, or contact NextPass about your circumstances.
