# Si Rhodes Driver Training
Si Rhodes Driver Training is an independent driving school based in Westhoughton, Bolton, established in 2008. Run by Simon Rhodes, a Grade A fully qualified instructor registered with the Motor Schools Association and approved by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency, the school specialises in comprehensive driver training for all experience levels.
The business serves learner drivers seeking their first qualification, experienced drivers wanting to refresh or enhance their skills, and commercial fleet operators requiring driver risk assessments. What distinguishes Si Rhodes is their exceptional track record—consistently achieving high first-time pass rates evidenced by recent students including Chloe Johnson (passed with no minor faults), Owen Fitton, Molly Ellis and Freyja Rees, all passing first time as complete beginners.
The school recognises that driving instruction must be personalised; as one student noted, Simon adapted lessons to suit individual personalities, proving particularly valuable for anxious learners. Beyond standard manual tuition, the school offers automatic transmission lessons, removing barriers for diverse learners. Their commitment extends beyond basic competency—Pass Plus accreditation and advanced driving courses ensure students develop safer, more confident long-term habits.
Operating since 2008 provides a decade-plus track record of reliability and expertise. By combining Grade A instruction with flexible, affordable lesson packages and specialised corporate programmes, Si Rhodes positions itself as a thorough, approachable alternative to larger driving school chains.
