If your youngster aged 10 and up is showing signs of wanting to learn to drive - but isn't yet old enough to take their full time lessons with their provisional licence at 17 - then this incredible Drive Age 10 lesson, hosted at Tibenham Airfield in Norwich, will be the perfect starting point (or bridging gap) to making that happen. And actually, there's a lot to be said for them having a lesson in this set up ahead of time, because it will help them gain both confidence and some valuable prior driving knowledge that they can take forward into their lessons and thus their future driving career. The airfield is the perfect place for this 60 minute session, because it's all done on a carefully controlled layout designed to emulate real life driving conditions, but in a relaxed setup that will help put them at ease, as a qualified instructor helps them learn and master basic driving skills including steering, braking and accelerating. The lesson is entirely tailored to their level of expertise, so you can be safe in the knowledge that they'll come away feeling confident and ready to progress further. Plus, they'll also get to take home an achievement certificate and there'll be a chance for photos at the end - so make sure to bring along a camera!
