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 hold
a valid provisional licence for the category B - Car Licence. If
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
we do currently have an excellent record.

be booked as soon as we can obtain one and is normally prior
to the course start date, if you were to fail you may not
be able to take a practical driving test at the end of your
driving course if another theory test cannot be taken.
If
you pay for an additional theory test fee we will try to book
another theory test before the end of your driving course
(note - if this is not possible you will not be able to take
a practical driving test at the end of your driving course).

Your practical driving test
will be booked for the end of your course or
any day that week providing
you have passed your theory test prior to the course starting.
If
One2one Driving School cannot provide a driving test within
the same week as your driving course then we will book the
next available date provided by the DSA that best coincides
with your instructors availability and yourself.
Your driving test is usually at the nearest Practical Driving
Test 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.
One2one
will not be held responsible if your course is affected in
the following circumstances:- 1) The DSA canceling a driving
test. eg. Unavailable Examiner, Due to bad weather, failing
light etc or unforeseen mechanical failure 2) An unforeseen
accident while on a lesson or test.

the pupil is found to be under the Influence of Alcohol, Drugs
or anything which could affect your driving, the pupil would
