Driving Lessons

At St David’s College Sixth Form, education is about more than just academic success; it’s about preparing young people for life. We understand that, as a boarding school, we are in loco parentis, taking on some of the wider responsibilities that parents normally carry out. That’s why we are proud to launch a new initiative from September 2025 - an exclusive Driving Lessons Package for all our Sixth Form boarders.

Learning to drive is a key milestone in every young person’s journey to adulthood. Our fully-funded driving lessons provide practical life skills, boost confidence, and help students gain independence, all while they continue to develop academically, socially and personally in our supportive Sixth Form community.

What’s Included?

• ✅ 10 Fully-Funded Driving Lessons
  Organised by the school with qualified local driving instructors, scheduled around each student’s academic and co-curricular timetable.
• ✅ Theory Test Entry Paid For
  We arrange and pay for pupils to sit their official DVSA Theory Test, helping them progress toward gaining their full UK driving licence.
• ✅ Exclusive to Sixth Form Boarders
  This added-value package is provided as part of our commitment to supporting boarders through every step of their personal development.

Working Towards a Whole-Person Education: Life Skills for the Future

We believe in preparing students for life beyond the classroom. Our Sixth Form Driving Lessons Package is a new initiative aimed at helping students develop real-world skills that will serve them for years to come, whether they go on to university, apprenticeships, employment, or gap year adventures.

This unique opportunity also gives parents peace of mind, knowing that their child is supported in achieving this important life goal while living away from home.
