Mikes School of MotoringLessons

We provide full 1 hour lessons (the time doesn't start until you are in the car) that are tailored to your individual needs.

We also offer lessons in an automatic car.

Lessons are usually based in Newport (where your test will take place) so it may be more practical for you to meet your instructor in Newport if you live a long way away.

    There are plenty of activities on the Isle of Wight for children of all ages, so while you are learning to drive on this beautiful Island, your family will be well catered for. Brochures can be sent on request.

    Pass Plus

    You've passed your driving test. Now you're ready for Pass Plus, the training course that will help you become a better driver and give you a number of other benefits. The Pass Plus course must be taken within one year of obtaining your Full Driving License.

    The Pass Plus course covers driving...

    There is no further test to take, when your instructor is satisfied with your performance, you receive a certificate from the Driving Standards Agency. Pass Plus gives you valuable extra experience and positive driving skills that would otherwise take a long time to acquire.

    Motor insurers that support the scheme will give you one year's no claims bonus as soon as you insure your own car. You can defer the no claims bonus for two years if you currently drive under someone else's policy. This means that if you buy a car within two years of completing a Pass Plus course, and have not made any claims in the meantime, your first premium will be reduced by the extra one year's no claim bonus. Insurers representing over 60% of the UK private car market have agreed these discounts. The saving on the cost of insurance often pays for the Pass Plus course.
