Our Aims & Objectives @ 4front Driving School

At 4front Driving School we understand that each individual will learn in their own individual way and at their own speed. You may be someone who likes to be given time to reflect on your learning, so we provide opportunities and resources to help you achieve this such as our blog, teaching style and focus on client centred learning.

 We do not want you to feel pressured to move on to the next step if you do not feel ready. We want to create agreed targets with you that we set with you each lesson so that you progress at your own pace. 

 Every individual has their own learning style and therefore we will always try and adapt our teaching approach to suit your requirements, for example you may be someone who likes to read up on the activity before hand so that you come to your lessons prepared. Or you may be the kinesthetic type who likes to try out different methods to find the technique to suit the task that works for you.

 Our client-centred learning is an approach to learning that takes into account how you - the learner prefers to learn. 
When people learn in this way they are more likely to retain information and skills.

 Our students are also encouraged to take responsibility for their learning at an early stage. You may want to keep a self reflection journal to highlight what went well, what didn't go so well and what you want to work on next time.

 Self reflection also works well in your theory revision. We encourage our students to keep a log of questions they got wrong in their practice tests and keep a log of them with the correct answers. We encourage post-it notes used in revision books so that you can read up on areas that you may not be fully familiar with.

 At the end of the day you need to look at what type of learner you are and this will help us develop a strategy to teach you to your full potential.

crossings

Types of pedestrian crossings When learning to drive a focus of a lesson can be based around pedestrian crossings. During your driving test, the examiner will be looking at how you deal with or react to pedestrian crossings. They want to make sure that you are planning ahead, showing awareness and responding to them them in the safest possible way.  Pedestrian crossings get put into two main categories – uncontrolled and traffic light controlled. For all crossings: -In queuing traffic, you should keep the crossing clear. On approach to a crossing there will be white zigzag lines on both sides of the road to highlight there is a pedestrian crossing ahead – these also prevent people parking at any time and is a place you make no attempt to overtake. You should take extra care where the view of either side of the crossing is blocked by queuing traffic or incorrectly parked vehicles. Pedestrians may be crossing between stationary vehicles. Allow pedestrians plenty of time to cross and do n

Sat Nav In Your Driving Test

Sat Nav In Your Driving Test This part of the test is your independent driving part and it’ll last around 20 minutes - roughly half of the test. Following directions from a sat nav During the independent driving part of the test, most candidates will be asked to follow directions from a sat nav. The examiner will provide the sat nav (a TomTom Start 52) and set it up. You won’t need to set the route - the examiner will do this for you. So, it doesn’t matter what make or model of sat nav you practise with. You can’t follow directions from your own sat nav during the test - you have to use the one supplied by the examiner. You’ll be able to ask the examiner for confirmation of where you’re going if you’re not sure. It won’t matter if you go the wrong way unless you nake a fault while doing it. One in 5 driving tests won’t use a sat nav. You’ll need to follow traffic signs instead. If you are interested in learning to drive then please call Simon at 4front Driving School on 07905657229 Or

48 Hours Notice - Our Cancellation Policy

Like most reputable driving schools, we have a strict 48 hour cancellation policy that can be found via our website. https://www.4frontdrivingschool.co.uk/terms-and-conditions Lessons cancelled at short notice or missed  for  what  ever reason  (48hrs before lesson start time)  will require payment  in full. It  is  your  responsibility  to  check  times  and  dates of  lessons.  You will find that the driving test centre follows the same rule. We can't afford to be messed about for whatever reason. At the end of the day if you cancel why should we loose out? We could fill that slot with a paying student if you give us enough warning. Unfortunately some circumstances are unpredictable, but we have to be firm and present our policy like any other business. Please read our terms and conditions and ask any questions you may have. Please note: If we were to cancel last minute, you won't of course be charged as it is our fault and we will accept the loss of earnings, so
