My name is Mark Cowdell and I am a fully qualified and experienced DVSA approved driving instructor.

Why trust DVA School of Motoring with your training?



There are too many driving schools out there who are encouraging pupils to book their driving tests when they aren’t quite ready yet, resulting in failed first time driving tests - so why don’t you increase your chances of passing first time by joining DVA School of Motoring today!

Whether you are a beginner, experienced, nervous or confident, each pupil is special and requires their own unique structured lesson plan which will be logged regularly. This in turn allows both pupil and instructor to keep a detailed progress record to ensure that you are giving the best coaching technique along with the best possible chance of passing first time.

Driving lessons start off road learning the main controls, progressing to controlling the car up and down hills, basic junctions in housing estates. This leads to confidence and greater car control ability, on road now starts with the rural, country drive through to town and complex junctions. Learning this way reduces the amount of lessons needed and gives you a higher control ability to pass first time.
