About Capital Driving Trainers Ltd.
Capital Driving Trainers: driving school in London with DVSA-approved instructors
Capital Driving Trainers Ltd. is a family-run driving school founded in May 2010 and incorporated as a UK limited company. It operates from London and extends its lessons to surrounding counties. Its activity focuses on training new drivers and refreshing experienced drivers, with instructors the company describes as qualified and highly experienced.
Training for new drivers
The beginner programme covers everything from the initial stage with L plates to obtaining a P plate as a safe driver. The driving school states it structures a plan agreed with the student from the outset and adapts the pace to their personal circumstances and schedule. Lessons are given in vehicles with manual or automatic transmission, at the student's choice, and can take place at mutually agreed locations such as home, work, or school. The company says it caters to drivers of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels, with special rates for students and a particular welcome for international students.
Intensive and residential courses
The offer includes intensive courses to obtain a licence in a week or less, with durations ranging from 2 to 10 hours in a single day up to 60 hours spread over several days. Residential intensive courses are also offered in London and nearby counties. The driving school indicates it can book the practical test for a specific date at short notice as part of the course.
Practical test support
The practical test support service consists of making the instruction vehicle available once the instructor and student agree that the student is ready and a test date has been set. The standard cost stated on the website is £140 for manual transmission and £150 for automatic, and includes a one-hour lesson before the test. The driving school also assists people who are not its students and need a test car with an instructor at short notice, with the same standard rates and a one-hour lesson to familiarise themselves with the vehicle and correct any observed faults. Enrolled clients can arrange payment directly with their instructor.
Services for experienced drivers
For those already driving, the driving school offers refresher and advanced courses in specific areas, such as parallel parking in tight spaces or bay parking. It also provides the Pass Plus course, training for company and fleet drivers, automatic to manual licence conversion, driving review for company risk assessments, refresher driving courses — including test preparation after a disqualification — and preparation for advanced tests. It also advises drivers with foreign licences seeking conversion to a UK licence.
Other services and training approach
The driving school complements its offer with theory test support, mock practical tests, and instructor training. Its training approach includes eco-safe driving techniques, which the company presents as a way to reduce fuel consumption and insurance costs, as well as training drivers to be aware of their surroundings. The company states it selects its instructors from DVSA-approved professionals (ADI) and trains them in customer care. Its stated goal is to train safer drivers to contribute to road safety.
