NEWS FLASH!!!

You'd think looking at our socials that every learner we present for test passes, hey like every school we promote the ones that do, its good for the image.

However, not everyone does, sometimes its a bit of nerves, or sometimes its not understanding a tricky roundabout or junction.
When a pupil fails it really effects us, we, like most of yous are overthinkers, 'could we have done more or did i miss something in the training' but sometimes its just one of those things.
What I always say to the ones who do fail is "we will get it, you will pass, hopefully next time but don't give up"

You then will be able to pop out for a coffee when you can't sleep at 5.30am, or go for a drive, just because you can.

YOU WILL GET THERE!!!!!
Don't give up, we've got this.

Here I am, overthinking at 6.30am getting a coffee before I start the day.

Well done Natalia on absolutely knocking the ball out of the park with an easy pass, 1 tiny little fault and even the examiner said he was being harsh but felt it was noteworthy.
Its been emotional chucks and gonna miss putting the world to rights with you.
Thanks for the thoughtful gifts last week when I was poorly they really mean a lot and made me smile.
Stay safe out there chucks and I'm sure I'll see you about when you get a car.

There's another one gone, we're banging the passes out so now would be a good time to get in touch for lessons as we have some availability.
