About Hermes Driving School

Hermes Driving School History

Hermes Driving School was launched in 2004, In the first instance to combat the driver shortage at the time and to upgrade our own Non-LGV drivers licences to LGV Cat C and C+E.

We ran a scheme where warehouse staff could train and pass the LGV Cat C and C+E.
This then enabled us to recruit from within for any new vacancies in our transport  network .

The LGV training went from strength to strength and became renowned for high standards and quality training in our local area .

Unlike some training companies we are proud to display our pass rate and with an overall pass rate of 93%. since 2006 , with 82% of drivers passing the driving
test on their first attempt. This compares well with our local test centre average overall pass rate of 44%.

All Hermes Driving School instructors are experienced DSA registered LGV Driving Instructors.

We added courses and commenced Driver training packages for our 500 plus team of drivers Including Drivers hours , Tachograph , Digital Tachograph , Drivers CPC.

Hermes has been involved with local driving agency, Drivers Plus, assessing and grading all potential drivers employed prior to placement. This resulted in a 40% reduction in minor accidents from their drivers.

Hermes Driving School has attained the training centre accreditation to deliver the Drivers CPC commencing September 2009.
