Why Choose Automatic with HSA

We teach on the roads you’ll actually face on test day; consequently, every minute of practice is relevant. Moreover, our DVSA-approved instructors tailor each session to your pace and goals. In addition, you can book evenings or weekends and start from home, work, or college across London and Barnet.

What You’ll Learn: Awareness, Planning & Hazards

• Observation routines (mirrors–signal–position–speed–look) and safe positioning.
• Reading developing hazards early and planning smooth approaches to junctions.
• Lane discipline at roundabouts and speed awareness in city traffic.
• Parking skills: bay, parallel, and safe stop on the right.
• Eco-driving: smooth acceleration and braking for comfort and control.

Safety & Safeguarding (Government-Aligned)

• DVSA compliance: ADI-registered instructors (green badge) and dual-control vehicles.
• DBS-checked instructors and a clear safeguarding policy for young and vulnerable learners.
• Pick-up/drop-off agreed in advance; lone-working procedures for pupil welfare.
• Data protection: bookings and contact details handled in line with GDPR best practice.

For official guidance, see the UK government pages: Learn to drive a car and The Highway Code.

Important Facts Before You Book

• Passing in an automatic usually entitles you to drive automatics only unless you later pass a manual test (DVSA rule).
• You must hold a valid provisional licence and meet the DVSA eyesight standard (read a number plate at 20m).
• You’ll need to pass the theory test before booking the practical test; therefore, we include theory support on request.
• Display L plates during lessons and use insured, dual-control vehicles with an approved instructor.
