Huge congratulations to Gabriel on passing his driving test on the first attempt in Bromley on 2nd January 2025 and in his own car😁🥳🥳. Gabriel came to Podium from another driving school. After an initial assessment drive we found quite a few gaps in his skills , knowledge and understanding. Gabriel worked really hard on those and there was a great improvement only after a few lessons. He was a quick learner and showed a great attitude towards driving and became a very confident and considerate driver. A huge thank you goes also to Gabriel's mum, who took him for those extra drives😁 Gabriel, on behalf of Podium and myself I wish you a very happy and safe driving 🚗 😊. Enjoy your freedom 😊 Denise

Congratulations to Anna-Marie on passing in Canterbury today with only 3 driver faults!
Anna-Marie, you've been an absolute pleasure to meet. From quiet and timid, not believing in yourself to growing into an amazing driver with the confidence to do the test in your own car! You've done so well in overcoming your fears both in driving and personally to get this brilliant pass!

I'm so proud of you and happy for your achievement. The tears and the determination have shown that you can do anything if you put your mind to it and sometimes you just need a minute to put everything together and then it works perfectly!

I hope you enjoy your new freedom! Congratulations again from myself and everyone at Podium Driving School! 🚗

⭐️zero faults ⭐️ Congratulations to Lewis on passing his test at sidcup today with an impressive clean sheet. This is Lewis’s 4th time in going for a test (1st time with me) so you can only imagine what this means to him. When I met Lew you could clearly see he could drive but there were gaps in his road knowledge, but together we worked and focused on those areas and soon enough you could see the efforts paying off! Very proud and happy with this result today, from me and everyone at podium we wish you all the best in your driving journey Lew 👌🏻😊
