    If they won't get additional practice have 2 lessons a week.

    My daughter had 4 x 2 hour lessons during Covid (2 in December 2020 and 2 in May 2021 she passed her test within a week of tests restarting in May), I picked up the slack when lessons were banned.

    If someone needs 40 hours I would be more likely to question their ability.  The important thing is road time and most parents should be able to do that.
    I should have said I don't have a car, so junior won't get any practice outside of his lessons 
    That's a bummer, so starting from scratch Sid is probably right then.  Once he is getting to grips with the basics I think 2 hour lessons are a good idea.  Just practice, practice, practice.

    Many people believe a pass is an indication of their ability to drive. A driving test pass simply gives you authority (by way of a full licence) to continue learning on your own.

    For many younger generation, the driving test is often the first time someone will be told they've failed something as schools seem keen to adopt the approach that even a child who gets an F minus has done very well and praises their efforts.
