Learning to drive around Pendleton
Pendleton is part of Salford, so your lessons build up to the roads learners here meet every day: mediaCityUK's junctions, the A6 corridor, busy retail parks and the East Lancs Road.
Early lessons stay on the quieter side of Pendleton. Once moving off, stopping and turning feel natural, we'll add roundabouts, crossings and faster roads. Before your test we'll practise around Cheetham Hill and Atherton test centres.
M6 also covers Weaste — we teach there too.
Every lesson is logged in the free DriveSQ Student Portal, so you can see your progress between lessons.
