Passing With Tony

Welcome to Tony's LDC Driving School, your trusted partner in learning to drive in Barnstaple and the surrounding areas. Established as a franchise of the Learner Driving Centre (LDC), a reputable name in driver training for over three decades, our school prides itself on delivering high-quality driver education that prioritises both safety and learning.

A Commitment to Quality Driver Training

Led by Tony Shields, a fully qualified Government Approved Driving Instructor (ADI), our school is dedicated to providing a supportive and engaging learning environment. Tony's passion for teaching and his extensive experience ensure that students receive the best possible guidance and instruction. As a handpicked LDC instructor, Tony has undergone specialized training in utilising the unique LD System, a student-centred learning approach that focuses on gradual progression and mastery of essential driving skills. This commitment to meticulous training and top-notch customer care sets our driving school apart, guaranteeing a comprehensive and effective learning experience for every student.

Unlocking Your Driving Potential with the LD System

At the heart of our teaching methodology lies the LD System, a revolutionary approach to driver training that empowers learners to become competent and confident drivers. The LD System leverages visual aids and interactive resources to break down complex driving manoeuvres into manageable steps, allowing students to grasp the concepts quickly and build their skills effectively. Through carefully designed video demonstrations and accompanying workbooks, the LD System provides a clear roadmap for learning, ensuring that no aspect of driving is overlooked. This comprehensive approach not only accelerates the learning process but also instills a strong foundation of driving knowledge and safety awareness.

Tailored Packages for Your Needs

Recognising that each learner is unique, we offer a range of driving courses and packages to cater to individual needs and learning styles. For those seeking a focused and intensive approach, our intensive driving courses are designed to help you pass your driving test in a shorter timeframe. Alternatively, our semi-intensive courses provide a more balanced approach, incorporating a flexible schedule of lessons that suits your lifestyle. We also offer "pay-as-you-go" driving lessons, allowing you to progress at your own pace and control the cost of your lessons.

Looking Beyond the Test

Our commitment to your success extends far beyond simply passing the driving test. The LD System and Tony's expert guidance equips you with the skills and knowledge to become a safe and responsible driver for life. Whether you're a first-time learner or returning to driving, Tony's LDC Driving School is dedicated to providing the highest standard of driver training, empowering you to embark on your driving journey with confidence.

Complementing our in-car instruction is our comprehensive online learning hub, accessible through multiple devices. This user-friendly platform offers a wealth of resources, including theory test preparation materials, interactive hazard perception exercises, and the online version of the LD System.
