The 'Terms and Conditions' listed below represent the basis upon which all driving lessons and driving courses (intensive driving courses or otherwise) are offered to the public by All Pass Driving School.
It should be noted that on booking a driving lesson or an intensive driving course with All Pass Driving School, all pupils agree to abide by the following terms and conditions. The All Pass Driving contract of service is between the pupil concerned and his or her driving instructor.

1. Cancellation:
In the event of a driving lesson, intensive driving course or part thereof being cancelled, no penalty will be incurred providing that the All Pass Driving (herein referred to as APD) instructor can source alternative work for the same training period in question. If this is not possible, the full training fee for the said training period may, at the discretion of the APD Driving instructor, be charged in full. Therefore, to ensure your APD instructor can source alternative work, the cancellation of an intensive driving course will only be accepted within 7 working days (not including Saturday, Sunday or Bank Holidays) of an intensive driving course being booked.
Cancellation of a short notice intensive driving course(i.e. where start date is less than 7 days from date of booking), will NOT be possible and full payment of the booked intensive driving course fees will be required. If payment is not paid in full, legal assistamce may be sought in order to recover the said intensive driving course fees.
If a pupil decides to cancel their intensive driving course before the said intensive driving course is completed, it is agreed that APD will NOT refund any monies paid. However, as an act of goodwill we will gladly discount any future intensive driving course booked by the said pupil within 3 months of them cancelling their original intensive driving course.  All other driving lessons require 48 hours notice of cancellation. Failure to comply with our cancellation policy will result in any intensive driving course or driving lesson booked being charged in full. Cancellation requests must be made in writing and emailed to info@allpassdriving.co.uk

2. Time Keeping:
All pre-agreed driving lessons must commence/finish on times agreed between pupil and driving instructor. If the pupil is late for his/her lesson for any reason, the time will still be chargeable.
If the driving instructor is late, the time will be added on at the end of the lesson or at another time suitable for the pupil. In situations where this isn't convenient for the pupil, then the time will not be chargeable.

3. Discounted Lessons:
From time to time we offer block bookings (5 or 10 lessons) at discounted rates. If for any reason a refund is requiredfor any outstanding lessons, the lessons taken will be charged at our standard hourly rate.
Example 1: 10 lessons are purchased for £160 and only 5 lessons are taken. If the hourly rate was £22 at time of a refund request, the total charge for lessons taken will be "5 x £22" = £110, leaving a refund of £50.
Example 2: Our standard 15 hour intensive driving course at time of writing is £437. We discount this by offering to pay for the practical driving test (currently £62) and then offer a further reduction of £40, bringing our 15 hour intensive driving course down to an overall price of £335 - a huge reduction.
If a pupil purchases this course (or any other intensive driving course offered by APD) and decides to cancel their intensive driving course, i.e. that they no longer want to continue their intensive driving course for whatever reason, then any discounts applied to this or any other intensive driving course are null and void and any refund considered, would be based on the original APD course cost.

4. Special Offer - £40 Discount Offer:
Offer applies to all courses starting from and including 15 hour intensive course - 50 hour intensive course.

5. Intensive Driving Course Information:

• A non-refundable deposit is to be paid prior to APD booking a prospective pupil onto an intensive driving course. It should be noted that any deposit paid OR any subsequent tuition fees paid are NOT refundable in the event that a pupil decides to cancel his/her period of driving tuition once the relevant booking has been accepted and agreed by APD and the pupil concerned. 
• Before a client/pupil can be enrolled onto an APD intensive driving course and before a practical test is booked, the client/pupil must complete and submit the APD 'Book Course' form on the following website:http://www.allpassdriving.co.uk/Book-Course.html. If an intensive course is booked prior to a client/pupil taking their theory test then this form will have to be completed again once the theory test has been passed. No intensive driving course will commence or practical driving test booked until the APD 'Book Course' Form is completed.
• APD's contract is deemed to begin on the day that the pupils intensive driving course and practical test date is booked or date that the pupils deposit is paid, whichever is actioned first. 
• APD reserve the right to cancel the said intensive driving course and practical driving test if the non-refundable deposit is not paid by the required date, which is within 24 hours of the practical test date being booked. 
• Once a pupil has made a deposit payment to APD, they must agree in writing (by email) for their said driving lesson/intensive driving course purchased to be conducted in accordance with the APD terms and conditions. Failure to provide this written confirmation will result in the said pupils driving lesson/intensive driving course being placed on hold until they do so. 
• The balance of payment must be made in full before an intensive driving course commences. This can be done using (i) Bank Transfer; (ii) Credit Card Payment; (iii) Paypal or (iv) Cash Payment on the first day of a pupils intensive driving course. Please note that an intensive driving courses will not commence until the course fee has been paid in full.

• All pupils must complete the APD Enrolement Form on the first day of their intensive driving course.
• If a pupil requests a change of driving instructor at anytime after the commencement and during their intensive driving course, the change must be mutually agreed between the pupil and their allocated APD driving instructor.  If the APD driving instructor cannot source alternative work for the time remaining of the pupils intensive driving course, then the change will be deemed commercially non-viable for the APD driving instructor and the course fee will be charged in full. 
• When the situation arises that APD cannot source their own driving instructor to provide tuition for a particular intensive driving course, it is agreed that APD will sub-contract the said intensive driving course out to another fully qualified ADI. If such a situation arises, the said intensive driving course will still still be conducted under the APD Terms and Conditions. 
• In the event of a driving lesson, intensive driving course or part thereof being cancelled, no penalty will be incurred providing that the All Pass Driving (herein referred to as APD) instructor can source alternative work for the same training period in question. If this is not possible, the full training fee for the said training period may (at the discretion of the APD Driving instructor) be charged in full. Therefore, to ensure your APD instructor can source alternative work, the  cancellation of an intensive driving course will only be accepted within 7 working days (not including Saturday, Sunday or Bank Holidays) of an intensive driving course being booked.  If less than 7 days notice of cancellation is given, the remaining intensive driving course fees MUST be paid in full without exception. If payment is not paid in full, legal assistance will be initiated to recover the said intensive driving course fees for whatever driving course booked. Cancellation of a short notice intensive driving course (i.e. where start date is less than 7 days from date of booking), will NOT be possible and the remaining intensive driving course fees MUST be paid in full without exception. If payment is not paid in full, legal assistance will be initiated to recover the said outstanding intensive driving course fees for whatever driving course booked. 
• If a pupil decides to cancel their intensive driving course before the said intensive driving course is completed, it is agreed that APD will NOT refund any monies paid. However, as an act of goodwill we will gladly discount any future intensive driving course booked by the said pupil within 3 months of them cancelling their original intensive driving course.  All other driving lessons require 48 hours notice of cancellation. Failure to comply with our cancellation policy will result in any intensive driving course or driving lesson booked being charged in full. Cancellation requests must be made in writing and emailed to info@allpassdriving.co.uk 
• If a pupil fails to complete their intensive driving course in full i.e. he/she does not complete the full number of hours of driving tuition booked for their intensive driving course, APD reserve the right to cancel the said pupils practical driving test without exception. 
• If a pupil does not respond to any communication made by their allocated ADI, it is agreed that APD reserve the right to cancel any driving lessons or driving test booked until communication is re-established by the pupil. Once communication has been re-established, the pupils allocated ADI will re-schedule any outstanding driving lessons where possible. Please note that if the pupil concerned has booked an intensive driving course they may not be able to receive all of their remaining lessons if there is insufficient time to do so.
• If a pupil is absent without prior agreement with their allocated driving instructor, the absent time will be charged at the normal lesson or intensive driving course pro-rata rates. 
• It is the sole responsibility of each pupil to check and agree their practical test date and courses details when provided to them by APD and prior to paying the required deposit. If an error is identified after the deposit payment has been made, any pupil booking driving lessons or an intensive driving course of any descriptions agrees not to hold APD accountable for any booking error made regarding driving course or practical driving test dates/details. Any such error made regarding driving course or practical driving test dates/details will be deemed as being the sole responsibility of the pupil concerned. Therefore a thorough check of any practical test date and course details provided by APD must be made by the pupil concerned.
• When an intensive driving course is booked and paid in full before the commencement of the said intensive driving course, it is mutually agreed between the pupil and APD that the training for the said intensive driving course must commence within 6 months of the payment date. After this 6 month period has elapsed it is agreed that APD are not obliged to provide training. 
• Depending on how far a pupils pick up point is from the DSA Test Centre, it is agreed that the last 2-3 hours of each intensive driving course is utilised for: (i) picking the pupil up from there pick up point and driving them to the relevant DSA Test Centre; (ii) time taken for the pupil to sit their practical driving test and (iii) dropping the pupil off at their agreed drop off point once the practical test has finished. 
• Failure to comply with our cancellation policy will result in any intensive driving course or driving lesson booked being charged in full. Date of booking is effective from the date the pupils practical driving test is booked/deposit is paid to APD.
  NB. Please ensure you know what an intensive driving course consists of before purchasing one of our courses. Intensive driving courses are an excellent way to learn to drive for some individuals, but others can find them overwhelming. Finding that the course you have purchased is difficult is not a reason to cancel.

The remainder of the course fee can be paid by either (i) bank transfer, no less than 7 days prior to the intensive driving course commencement date; (ii) PAYPAL transfer (any additional costs associated by using PAYPAL must be paid by the pupil); (iii) cash payment at the commencement of the said intensive driving course.

8. Use of APD vehicle:
In the interests of customer, public and DSA staff safety, your ‘APD’ instructor reserves the right to withhold the use of their tuition vehicle for the practical driving test if, in their opinion, your driving is actually or potentially dangerous. The practical driving test fee (currently £62) will be forfeited if your practical test is cancelled within three working days of the said test.

9. Test Cancellation:
Three clear working days notice of cancellation or postponement is required by the DSA. Failure to provide the required notice will result in the loss of your test fee.
