Location Overview – Wakefield is a bustling cathedral city in West Yorkshire, located on the banks of the River Calder. It was an important market town and centre for wool, and with its position on the River Calder, it became an inland port. Wakefield is 9 miles southeast of Leeds and 28 miles southwest of York at the east of the Pennines in Calder Valley. Wakefield city centre is situated on the north bank of the river, close to a 14th-century stone bridge and a later reinforced concrete bridge built in 1929–1930. Wakefield is at the junction of major north-south routes to Sheffield, Leeds and Doncaster and west-to-east roads to Huddersfield, Dewsbury, and Pontefract. Wakefield includes the outlying villages of Alverthorpe, Belle Vue, Sandal, Portobello, Agbrigg, Lupset, Kettlethorpe and Fanshaw. Advanced Driver training across Wakefield and the surrounding areas has been carried out since 2011 for private individuals and business clients.

Our courses are bespoke to the driver’s needs, whether they are private individuals or businesses. We cover:

* Post-RTC courses
* Motorway development
* General advanced training
* Pre-court assessments
* Performance driver training
* Confidence training

Each course is unique to the driver we are training, but below are some of the things we help a driver with:

* Developing a positive thinking style for safer driving
* Becoming much more speed aware and how to control speed better
* Identifying years of ingrained bad habits
* Developing transferable skills to become safer on all roads in all conditions
* Introducing and working on commentary driving to increase what you see
* Reviewing past driving experience
* Developing a ‘drivers’ mind via improved forward planning and observation
* Understanding what that other driver is about to do!

While a course may only last a half day, a full day or several half days – the things you learn will last a lifetime. The report we send for each driver not only reviews their driving but also provides valuable hints and tips for the future. So you can refer back to the report time and again. We add a unique verification number to each driving report we produce.

Wakefield has great access to the motorways at the joining of the M1 and M62 motorways, junctions 42/29, lying to the northwest, whilst the M1 to the west via junctions 39, 40 and 41. The A1 is to the east of the city. Wakefield is crisscrossed by the A61, A638, and A642 roads and is the starting point of the A636 and A650. We have helped many drivers in and around Wakefield, and our highly trained and qualified tutors are all registered with the DVSA. They will come to your address, and you can use your own car, van, or campervan for the duration of the course.

We offer full or half-day training options. We also provide multiple half-day options for those that need a more in-depth training course.

3.5hr – Popular with business clients who want to reduce the time employees are away from their duties. Also ideal as a refresher or toe-in-water for a private client who may want to go on then to book more sessions.

7hr – Designed for drivers with specific issues which need addressing, such as a lack of confidence, complaints from the public, high collision rate, or if they are moving from a car to a large van and need professional training to make the jump safely. The 7hr session can be split between two drivers, which is time and cost-efficient. One driver will be trained from 09:00 to 12:30, then the second from 13:00 to 16:30 (we can be flexible on start times). Each driver has 3.5hr each.

It tends to be private clients who opt for multiple 3.5hr sessions as they come to us with particular issues they may have, where a one-to-one training course over days or weeks is best suited to help them.

Whether you are a private client or a business customer, we can build a course based on your specific needs and requirements anywhere in the UK.

If you’re looking at a quote for a large number of drivers, we will be able to provide such, along with how we can best approach the training based on your business needs. Training large numbers requires a little extra planning, but we have many years of experience managing large, often complex driver training sessions, which involve multiple start locations and hectic diaries.
