Thank you so much for sharing Finn's fantastic experience with us! The entire team at Harwood Driving School sends a massive congratulations to Finn on passing his practical driving test at the Chorley test centre!
Paul is a truly exceptional instructor, and it is wonderful to hear how much his calm, articulate teaching style resonated from the very first lesson.

This higher standard of coaching ensures our students develop real-world confidence and elite vehicle control.
Mastering the specific challenges around the Chorley (Rossall Road) Test Centre requires a high level of situational awareness—ranging from navigating the busy multi-lane junctions on the A6 Preston Road to handling the unique spiral markings on local roundabouts like Hartwood Hall. Paul's ability to break down these advanced roadcraft elements is precisely why Finn transformed into such a competent driver.
