Here’s what some past pupils have said…
| "I have just passed with 1st Castle, like the other people on this website. I had lessons with another driving instructor and couldn't get into it, I hated driving. So I left it for a couple of months, then decided I needed to be able to drive for work and other obvious reasons. Mike, my recent instructor was superb, I felt as if I could have a laugh with him while he was still being an instructor. I ended up passing both my Theory and Practical within a few weeks of each other, and after only 20 Lessons (if you had seen my driving before, that is good), Cheers Mike for being an excellent instructor and a brilliant bloke" Wade, Dec 2006 |

"I Truly Couldn't Have Done It Without You" "To Gill, I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you for being such a great instructor (and friend) and for getting me through my driving test. I truly couldn't have done it without you. You've been brilliant & I have learnt so much from you. So once again, THANK YOU. You'll probably be hearing from me soon regarding my Pass Plus" Hayley |

| "My biggest fear was not being able to do my manoeuvres, as I never imagined I could do them but you helped me with that a lot. I chose 1st Castle because you looked very professional and have a great reputation. I felt I was taught correctly and everything was calm and enjoyable, which I why I picked it up so quickly. I will definitely tell all my college mates about you!" Katie Sykes, Nov 2006 |

"I was ready to throw the towel in with driving... 1st Castle has given me a real chance and belief in my ability to do it. They are accomodating, friendly and reliable. I will definitely recommend them to anyone needing lessons. Thanks guys." Barbara Kenny. Littlehampton. |

| "I would have to say being nervous was my biggest problem. Even though I have been with other schools, they never made me feel at ease, but you did which gave me more confidence. I chose 1st Castle as it was one of the popular schools I saw on the road and the only school I could find that was fairly priced and offered automatic lessons. I found the experience very enjoyable and would like to thank everyone at 1st Castle. If anyone is reading this looking for a driving school, I would recommend 1st Castle 100%. I have already recommended you to my friends." Dean Pender, Dec 2006 |
