DVSA Practical Test Centres

Practical test centres near High Halstow

Gillingham is the closest practical centre to High Halstow, around six miles south, and posts a pass rate comfortably above the national average. Routes typically cover the residential streets around the Medway towns and a few nearby A-roads, so most instructors work these areas into lesson plans once you're test-ready.

Maidstone sits around thirteen miles south and runs at a slightly lower pass rate, making it a sensible backup when Gillingham slots are scarce. Brentwood is roughly seventeen miles north-west, just over the Thames in Essex, and posts a pass rate close to the national average, though most High Halstow learners only book it if the two Kent centres are fully booked.
