National Driving Centre Reviews 

I had Andy as my instructor for my PCV driving course and I could not fault the experience. Everything I needed to know and work on was explained clearly and as a result I passed my practical driving exam today with no minor faults! Definitely would recommend.

Instructor was really helpful and everyone there strived to create a welcoming environment. Every manoeuvre and procedure was broken down and explained so I fully understood it. Ended up passing my tests with flying colours

Very happy with Mark and the team. Made me feel very at ease.

Amazing instructors!! Highly recommend!!!

Very supportive and friendly with calm, clear instruction.

After the 4 day intensive course, I passed my D1 Minibus driving test first time.

Lee our instructor for the week who is an ex artic lorry driver, was extremely knowledgeable and patient, taught us valuable lessons, and completely untrained the bad habbits out of us which showed in my result.

I would highly recommend the NDC in Croydon to anyone looking to add a vehicle type onto their licence as the team are very thorough.

Thanks again and all the best to the team at NDC.

National Driving Centre give excellent professional and knowledgeable help throughout the whole process of obtaining a class 2 licence. My driving instructor, Dave gave really good, precise help. He was always very calm while out driving and gave me all the tips and points to improve in preparation for my driving test and CPC test. They provide all the information needed to pass the test. This is definitely well worth the money to get the license needed in only a few weeks!

Andy, Sue and Lee were brilliant. Passed first time. I spent most of my course with Andy, he’s a top bloke and very knowledgeable, really put me at ease and gave me the confidence to pass. Sue was amazing too, gave all the information I needed to get going. I would highly recommend NDC!

I did my LGV course and past first time, thanks to my excellent instructor MARK.
Who had great knowledge and great way of teaching us how to drive the heavy goods lorry.
I highly recommend MARK the instructor if you’re thinking of getting your LGV license.

The patience and knowledge of the instructor is amazing,various routes with different things to learn,plenty driving time

The instructor was a vibe, he made things easy for me to understand, jokes and laughed around whilst still helping become a better driver

Just passed my HGV Class 2 test with NDC (National Driving Centre)! Big thanks to my instructor Keith — he was brilliant, patient, and made everything easy to understand. The whole team was friendly and professional. Highly recommend NDC to anyone learning to drive HGVs! 🚛

I passed my class 2 with Ndc 3years ago &today I passed my class 1 with them.i cannot fault anything they do ,from the affordable price to the great training they provide .dave was a great instructor and overall im pleased with how everything went

Ray has to be one of the nicest instructors to have as a mentor. His patience and feedback as you progress has been constructive. I couldn't have done it with out his support through the process.

On my first day of training itself, I’d started feeling that.
Yes, I am lucky to have my training here NDC Croydon.

Sincere Thanks to DAVE & ANDY for your effort and guidance during all my learning sessions over there.

It was Truly intensive training sessions. As a trainee, I’ve put forwarded my best effort everyday to go ahead for my Practical test, yes I passed my CPC 👍

Thanks again NDC team and members.

“HIGLY RECOMMEND this training centre”

An amazing company to get your hgv license with, everyone there was so friendly and had great banter with each other and really makes you feel welcome, would highly recommend. 👍🏻

Massive thanks to NDC for getting me from a car licence to a class 2 (cat c) licence, passing first time on friday the 13th of all days! They gave me sound advice and guidance following an assessment drive, which, coming from a car, was a bit of an eye opener, and support throughout.

My instructor, Mark, has been great, very knowledgeable and patient, assessing each drive individually, giving constructive feedback and highlighting areas that need work, then planning the next drive appropriately. Honestly couldn't have wished for a better experience.

Once again, a massive thank you to the team at NDC!

I left a review after completing and passing my Class 2 licence with NDC and it only seems right to leave a review after completing and passing my Class 1. For reference I took the B to C&E course for about £3700. It might seem like a lot of money but taking this course with NDC is worth every penny, also if the money puts you off then trucking isn't for you. Once passing my Class 2 the week before and completing my first days practice on C&E I did not feel confident in myself that I would be able to pass it, however the team at NDC see something in me that I did not see myself and reassured me that how I was feeling was totally normal and thankfully made me stay at it. I cannot thank them enough as I was ready to quit on day one. My instructor Lee is top notch and not to make him seem old but he has more experience in trucking than I have years on this earth lol. I could say the same about all the other instructors they really know their stuff and it is a provider you can trust 100%. I will say i did fail at the first attempt but this was not the fault of the school or my instructor I just let the test day nerves get to me and made a stupid mistake at a red light🫣.
If you are serious about getting your HGV licences definitely use NDC. I have dreamed about getting my licence for 7 years and thanks to everyone at NDC that wish came true.

The Staff at NDC made me feel very welcome, they were helpful and polite. Having a Free driving assessment before doing my course was a nice touch, it allowed me to understand what I would be paying for and making sure to myself I was making the right choice.
I'd like to give a special to my instructor Mark, he made me feel safe whilst in the lorry but also gave me confidence within myself when driving through his experience. Thanks again to all at NDC

The team at NDC are a great bunch of people who offer a focused and well thought out training environment for anyone wishing to undertake their training.

Whilst at the centre I chatted to many others who were all getting on with the training and working towards their tests, whether that be cat C lorry, C+E artic or PCV. 

All agreed that the trainers are supportive, yet realistic about what’s needed and the standard required. If you put in the effort and are interested to learn you will be able to attain the level required to pass your test.

It’s not easy, and if you don’t pass first time then they will certainly support you through a retest.

Thanks to all at NDC. Get your straddle on! 👊
