Choose the right instructor for a lifetime of safe driving!
Other driving schools in Norfolk may try to tempt you to buy on impulse by offering deep discounts when you block book your lessons upfront. But usually, you’ll have to pre-pay for up to 10 hours of tuition before you even take your first lesson.
This is a lot of money to pay when you haven’t even met your instructor yet! How do you know whether you’ll get along with your instructor until you’ve sat behind the wheel with them? What happens if you don’t get along?
That’s why we offer you your first lesson half price. This gives you the chance to take us out for a test drive before you commit to paying hundreds of pounds.
Once you’re confident we can help you pass, you’ll then be able to take advantage of our block booking discount.
Why choose How-2-Drive?
Challenge accepted! We’ll give you five good reasons:
- No upfront commitment. Get your beginner’s two-hour trial lesson half-price so you can see what you think of us without having to book a whole block of lessons in advance!
- Block booking discounts. If you like what you see, you can make a saving of £20 off the pay-as-you-go lesson price for every block of 10 hours you book.
- Save yourself time and money. With our Structured Driver Training System we’ll help you pass in less time than the DVLA average*. This will save you a wedge – more than £400, in fact!
- Buy local. We’re a family-run, independent driving school based in Norfolk. By taking lessons with us you’ll be making a sound ethical decision and help to keep more money in our local economy.
- Bonus: you’ll also get our How-2-Drive App so you can track your progress, book lessons, manage payments and practice for your Theory Test!

How do we help our pupils pass so quickly?
Our structured driver training course has three stages:
- Learn — first, we’ll cover all basic driving skills within the first 10 hours. We will give you practical experience of all road types, junctions and all the reversing manoeuvres. You won’t just sit in the car and talk!
- Develop — then, we’ll be there to support you whilst you practice your new-found skills.
- Master — finally, we’ll teach you to make the right driving decisions on your own. You’ll develop the confidence to pass your driving test first time!
Above all else, our motto is: fun gets done! We believe that you will find learning easier if you are relaxed and enjoying your lessons.

If you are a beginner we can teach you to drive to a high standard in around 30 hours. By this point you’ll be ready to pass your test.
If you already have some driving and road experience we’ll aim to do it even quicker than that!
This is easily one of the most common questions we get asked at How-2-Drive.
We know you want to learn how to drive in as few lessons as possible. We understand that you don’t want to feel rushed. But, at the same time, you also don’t want your tuition to drag on for longer than necessary.
Clearly-structured driving lessons
By using our Structured Driver Training System, we are able to deliver well-planned lessons that have clear objectives. Learning to drive is a considerable investment and we want you to get good value for your money.
According to the DVSA, it takes an average of 47 hours to pass the practical driving test. And that’s for learners who are sensible enough to study with an Approved Driving Instructor. On top of this, the DVSA says an additional 20 hours of private driving practice is also required.
How many sessions can we save you?
But who wants to be average? As a result of our specially-designed Structured Driver Training System, our pupils take 17 hours less than the DVSA average!
Our tried-and-tested system can reduce the time it will take you to learn to drive. We consistently bring our pupils up to pass standard within 30 to 40 hours of instructor contact time.
That’s up to 17 hours less than the average learner driver. We can save you time and money!
You will be given your own Learning to Drive Handbook when you start taking driving lessons with us. Your instructor will use it to record your progress after each lesson. This will give you a record of how well you are doing and what you need to learn or practice next.
You will also be encouraged to keep a reflective log. You can use this to review your own learning so that you can discuss your objectives with your driving instructor at the start of each lesson.

I’ve just passed my driving test with How-2-Drive on my first attempt – soooo pleased!
Howard, my instructor was amazing and explained things in a way I could easily understand.
Nothing was too much trouble and I really enjoyed my lessons – thank you so much. I will now recommend all my friends.
