Intensive Driving Courses in Reading
Deciding on a driving school isn’t always easy. Should you book a 5-day holiday just to learn to drive? Or should you stick with traditional lessons, spreading the process over months (or even longer)? Thankfully, you needn’t settle for either of these choices—because there’s another way. PassMeFast’s range of intensive driving courses means you could get your licence within weeks, even on a tight schedule. Read on for more information on the crash courses we have to offer for learners here in Reading.

Practical driving test centres in Reading
While learners in certain parts of the country may need to travel a little from their hometown to take their test, that isn’t the case for candidates from Reading. Indeed, the Reading practical test centre is a short hop from the town centre—talk about convenience! If this test centre isn’t suitable for you, other local options to consider are Newbury and Slough.
Theory test centres in Reading
Being in Berkshire’s biggest town has its advantages, as Reading is home not only to its own practical test centre, but its own theory test centre, too. In fact, the Reading theory test centre is one of only two in the county, with the other found in Slough. If you’re getting ready to take your test, be sure to visit our guide to theory test revision resources—or learn more about the document underpinning it all by reading our history of the Highway Code.
Haven't taken your theory test yet?
We can’t stress this enough: your theory test matters! Without it, you won’t even be able to book a practical test, let alone sit one—so it pays to get this in the bank as soon as possible. So, if you’ve not already booked your theory test yet, add one onto your PassMeFast course, and we’ll arrange everything for you.
Driving around Reading
When preparing to take your practical, finding out the location of your test centre is easy. What’s most important, however, is where you set off afterwards. That’s why, on your lessons, you’ll spend plenty of time driving on roads that are likely to appear on your test later on. This means that, while no individual test ever comes with a guaranteed pass, you won’t be caught out by any unfamiliar roads!
So, what’s on the menu here in Reading? Well, you’ll kick things off to the south of Reading, and are likely to continue in this suburban part of town. This includes the Whitley and Earley areas, as well as some of the streets surrounding the University of Reading. One major road that’s likely to appear on most tests is the A327 (Southampton St/Christchurch St/Shinfield St). Don’t forget that you’re able to take your driving instructor on your test with you—though, of course, you can’t confer with them!
