One2one Driving School
does not teach test routes, instead we teach you how drive.
All courses booked
with one2one are under the provision that you understand you are forming
a contract between yourself and the instructor who is a self-employed
franchisee of One2one Driving School. Any balance payment dispute, claim
or discussion should therefore be taken up with the instructor and not
with One2one Driving School. The company cannot be held liable for any
compensation claim from either instructor or student, nor can it be held
responsible for any traffic law violation on the part of either instructor
or the student.
You must also hold
a valid provisional licence for the category B - Car Licence and be at
the level recommended on our lesson structure. If this is not the case,
or you are not at test standard on your test day, you may be refused the
use of our Instructors car incurring the loss of test fee. The Instructors
decision is final, for more information read these terms & conditions.
Note - We cannot guarantee
a Driving Test for the end of your driving course, however one2one driving
school currently have a 99.7% success rate of achieving this.

to fail you may not be able to take a practical driving test at

Center to you, however, if this is not possible we will locate a
test at an alternative center within a reasonable driving time.
The
pupil will be permitted to use the training car for their driving
test providing the pupil has reached a safe standard of driving.
Whilst every effort is made to get the pupil to test level, and
to take the practical test, if it is considered by the instructor
that the pupil could be a danger to themselves, the DSA examiner
or to the general public, then for safety reasons, he/she will not
be allowed to use the training car for the test and will be advised
accordingly.
