Ignite Driving School

Ignite Driving School, driving school in East London and Essex

Ignite Driving School is a driving school based on Candy Street, in the London neighbourhood of Bow, offering driving lessons in East London and Essex. The company presents itself as one of the most popular driving tuition centres in the area and states it has fifteen years of experience and thousands of students trained.

Its offer is aimed both at those starting from scratch and at drivers who need practice in a different type of vehicle or who want to regain confidence before the practical test. The driving school states it is open seven days a week, with availability also in the evenings, at weekends and on bank holidays.

Training programmes and types of lesson

The driving school's catalogue organises tuition into several formats:

• Lessons for beginner students.
• Theory lessons.
• Refresher lessons for drivers with previous experience.
• Intensive courses.
• Pass Plus, the British advanced driving programme for newly qualified drivers.
• Practical driving test preparation.

Tuition is given in both manual and automatic transmission vehicles, and the driving school applies different rates depending on the type of transmission. It also offers discounts for block bookings and, according to its website, introductory promotions with savings of up to £160. The company claims that a student can be on the road in as little as two weeks and notes that the Pass Plus course can reduce insurance costs.

Practical test preparation

As well as lessons behind the wheel, Ignite Driving School devotes part of its programme to the specific content of the British practical test. This includes sat nav and independent driving, and the vehicle safety questions known as Show Me – Tell Me. The website also includes information about test centres.

Instructors

The driving school states that all its instructors are fully qualified and approved by the DVSA with grades A and B, the highest possible, and that they have years of driving experience. The company declares that it only hires instructors it considers the best, with the aim of guaranteeing the quality of tuition.
