Driving Lessons Innishannon Residents Love
No other driving school takes the same approach as us in Innishannon. Our years of experience has taught us that you the student are only as good as the teacher. Striking this balance is what we are best at. All our instructors are pushed to stay on top of their game so they can deliver driving lessons that bridge the gap between theory and practice and turn our students into thoughtful, safe drivers. With our instructors your driving will come to life.
Here is why students call us the top driving school in Innishannon
Years of experience has taught us that all students drive at different levels and have bad habits to fix. So you get the most out of each lesson we've trained all our instructors on how to quickly profile you so that you work on the areas of your driving that need the most work.
Another thing we see a lot is students coming back for a follow up lesson having forgotten much of what was covered in the lesson before. Which is why we created our own unique training guides and tutorials to support you throughout your driver training.
No other Innishannon Driving Schools offer free material like ours. Many of our pupils have even attributed it to their fast progress and development. Covering vital driving skills like driving at night, road positioning and traffic progression this training is like having your own driving instructor with you 24/7.
Refreshingly Good Driving Lessons in Innishannon
When we were in school we all had our favorite teachers, the ones that engaged us and made learning fun. And then we had the opposite, those teachers that had no place in the classroom. Not all teachers are made equal and that is certainly no less a fact with driving instructors. It is easy to Google 'Driving Lessons Innishannon' and find driving instructors near you but which can you trust to best teach you.
Knowledge and professionalism is what you need from a driving school. A place where learners are regularly passing their driving test first time.

Let us start there.
What exactly is the EDT?
EDT Driving Lessons Innishannon
It is an sad fact that Ireland is among the worst countries in Europe for road deaths and accidents. The Road Safety Authority had to do something so they designed a new training syllabus that all new drivers had to complete. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.
The EDT consists of 12 compulsory lessons that must be delivered by a RSA approved driving instructor to all learner drivers.
Learning to drive safely means understanding and practicing particular driving skills and these 12 EDT lessons have been intended to accomplish that.
That's the 'whats' and 'whys' of the EDT.
Getting yourself ready for the Test in Innishannon
Pretest Driving Lessons Innishannon
There is learning the vital driving skills and developing your knowledge of road signs and road safety. Then you must master the conditions of the driving test and understand what to expect. Being allowed to drive by yourself on Innishannon roads is a privilege you must earn and the driving test is your chance to do it. Like any exam you have ever had to sit, 80% of passing the driving test is accomplished well before the day of the test with right preparation.
If the thoughts of sitting the driving test are overwhelming you then you are not the first to feel like this. We naturally fear what we don't understand and the unknown. But with RSA School of Motoring you don't have to be afraid.
It is standard practice by many driving instructors to keep giving you lessons until they 'think' you are ready. Often they will send you to do the test not really knowing if you will pass or not. That is because of a total lack of understanding on how the tester thinks and marks you during the test. This is not how we do things. All our instructors have been trained by ex-testers so they fully understand the driving tester and what they are looking for from you on test day.
We're not in the business of gambling on your success. We simulate for you all 4 stages of the test, teach you all the test routes and focus on the areas of your driving that are most likely to get you the most marks or fail you.
Using this method we get our student past the test in half the time it takes other driving school. That means less lessons and less expense to you.
