Leicester sit in different traffic patterns, and the DVSA route you get reflects that. Across the 2 DVSA centres in the county, the recurring features are dual carriageways where joining at traffic speed is the marked skill, residential grids used for the manoeuvre element of the test and faster A-roads and bypasses that reward reading the road well ahead. Those are the things worth deliberate practice rather than a single demonstration. Town by town in Leicestershire: Leicester (Leicester (Cannock Street), Leicester (Wigston)). ### Choosing your course length in Leicestershire We recommend the route that fits your week, not the one with the bigger invoice. Across Leicestershire that means intensive courses for learners with consecutive days free and a theory pass banked, and weekly or semi-intensive lessons for everyone else. The DVSA's long-standing planning figure is roughly 45 hours of professional tuition plus about 22 hours of private practice. Treat it as an average across the country rather than a promise about Leicestershire. ### Leicestershire test centres and the roads around them Leicester (Cannock Street) and Leicester (Wigston) handle the practical tests across Leicestershire. Book the one you can realistically practise around; a higher published pass rate forty minutes away is a worse bet than the centre your instructor drives weekly. Recorded for these centres: Busy junctions in quick succession., Hesitation at busy junctions is the most common fault here — commit once the gap is genuinely there., Traffic density changes sharply by time of day, so ask your instructor about your slot. and Leicester (Wigston) covers a wide slice of Leicestershire, and instructors who teach it weekly know which approach roads back up..

We cover 1 town across Leicestershire — Leicester — plus the villages and suburbs inside a normal working radius of each. If your postcode sits between two of them, search it and we will tell you honestly whether an instructor can reach you. ### How much are driving lessons in Leicestershire? £61.23 an hour, the same as every other county we operate in. Twenty hours is £1,224.55 and forty hours is £2,449.10, with no county surcharge and no booking fee. DVSA fees — £23 theory, £62 weekday practical — are paid to the government separately. ### Which test centres serve Leicestershire? Leicester (Cannock Street), Leicester (Wigston). Each has its own page covering the road types its routes use, because the difference between neighbouring centres is bigger than most learners expect. ### What should I practise before a test in Leicestershire? Based on the roads our Leicestershire centres actually use: dual carriageways where joining at traffic speed is the marked skill, residential grids used for the manoeuvre element of the test and faster A-roads and bypasses that reward reading the road well ahead. Practising those in the conditions you will be tested in — same time of day, same weather if you can — is worth more than extra hours in an empty retail park. ### Are intensive courses available everywhere in Leicestershire? Yes — 10 to 40 hour blocks run across the county, usually completed in one to four weeks. You need a theory pass before a practical can be booked, so clear that first if you have not already. ### Will my instructor know the area? Always. Every instructor we put you with already teaches around your town and the centre your test is booked at, holds a DVSA green badge and an enhanced DBS check. ### How quickly can I start? Weekly lessons normally begin within a week. Intensive blocks are built backwards from your DVSA practical date, and that date — booked on GOV.UK, not by us — is usually the longest wait in the process. ## Not sure how many hours you need? Answer four quick questions and we will recommend a course based on your experience, not a sales target.
