About Streetwise Driving School
Streetwise Driving School is a family-run business that has been established for over 35 years. We proudly serve the North West and West London areas.
Formerly known as Lightning The Driving School, Streetwise began with a single instructor. Our reputation for excellence grew through the careful development of unique teaching techniques. As a result, we appointed more male and female instructors who specialise in both manual and automatic driving lessons, ensuring that our high standards of teaching were consistently maintained.
2009, we rebranded as Streetwise Driving School to reflect our growth and commitment to exceptional driver education.
Expansion and Expertise
As we expanded, we extended our services to more areas around London. In 2004, we launched our Driving Instructor Training programme, which is DSA-registered and ORDIT-registered (Official Register of Driving Instructor Training).
Our team of specialist driving instructors possess local solid knowledge of their areas. These instructors teach and live locally, giving them invaluable insights into the best streets for practice and the routes used in practical driving tests.
Proven Success with Unique Techniques
Streetwise has developed a unique and proven teaching technique that maximises every pupil’s chances of passing their driving test on the first attempt. We are so confident in our methods that your next test is FREE if you do not pass the driving test the first time! How many driving schools can offer that?
