Learning to Drive in The Swan: A Refreshing Driver Training Strategy
Most of us recall the fun engaging teacher in school that made learning easy and fun. And then we had the opposite, those teachers that had no place in the class room. We don't assume teachers are made equal and that is certainly no less accurate with approved driving instructors. It's not as straightforward as Googling 'Driving Lessons The Swan' and choosing the first driving school you unearth. Who can you have faith in to offer you that enjoyable and engaging experience?
Obviously you want to choose a driving school sporting a great reputation. A place where students are regularly passing their driving test first time.

Rachael Buggle - I passed my test!
I failed my test several times and had lost faith in my ability to actually pass the test. A friend suggested that I contact the School of Motoring for a new instructor. They suggested who specialized in aiding those who had not been successful. After a few lessons I was ready to sit my test again and passed it. I highly recommend this school and this instructor. I don't think I would have passed my test without their help.

Driving Test Brain TeaserQuestions From The Driving Test
When should you dip your headlights?
When meeting oncoming traffic, in built-up areas, in fog or falling snow, when following close behind another vehicle, at the beginning and end of lighting-up hours, in heavy rain and on dull days.
Few other driving schools apply the same attitude as us in The Swan. As our student we want you to have fun during your lessons and stay safe when you drive. Which explains why we continually train and develop our instructors to not just provide you with the finest driving lesson experience there is to be had in The Swan but also to give you a calm stress-free atmosphere to learn in. That involves no worry and no shouting.

niamh lalor - I passed my test!
Passed first time! I just want to say a big thank you to my driving instructor and the RSA School of Motoring for helping me pass successfully on my first attempted... Was an amazing instructor who showed me how I should drive and spent a lot of time refining my techniques to the level required to pass. He also worked on making me a confident and calm driver which was a big advantage on the day of my test...I heard of the RSA School of Motoring through a work colleague who said they were extremely good and helped her pass successfully. I'm so glad she recommend them and I would definitely recommend them to anyone learning to drive. I can now say I feel confident enough to drive anywhere on my own :)
Discover more about our unique approach to driver training
The majority of our pupils fit in one of the following. You have an certain driving test coming up or you want to kick off preparing for one before you book. Or you are a total beginner and need to get started or complete your Essential Driver Training.
What exactly is Essential Driver Training?
EDT Driving Lessons The Swan
You may not realise but in the not to distant past Ireland had one of the worst road accident stats in Europe. The Road Safety Authority were required to take action so they created a brand new driver training syllabus that all new drivers have to carry out. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.
This Essential Driver Training Syllabus mandates that all new drivers have to complete a minimum of 12 hours of essential driver training by an RSA approved driving instructor.
These 12 driving lessons were developed with the objective of filling in the vital driving skill gaps that new drivers had which were leading to the high degree of road accidents occurring each year.
That's the 'whats' and 'whys' of the EDT.
