Practical Test Centres Near Brent

Hendon is the closest practical centre to Brent, around three miles north-east, though pass rates sit below the national average. Routes typically cover a mix of suburban streets, faster sections around the North Circular, and some busier junctions, so most lesson plans focus on building confidence across those varied conditions in the final weeks before test day.

Mill Hill sits around four miles north-east with a similar pass rate to Hendon, making it a reasonable alternative when slots are tight. Southall is roughly four miles south-west and runs at a comparable rate, often booked by learners who live closer to the western side of Brent and prefer routes they've already practised during lessons.
