Cheshire Test Centres and Pass Rates

Based on the latest DVSA data, 2024–25 | 11 nearby test centres

Women achieved pass rates ranging from 38.3% at Widnes to 54.6% at Northwich, while men scored between 37.6% at Speke and 58.2% at Warrington across Cheshire's 10 centres. The challenging urban centres like Speke (38.6%) and St Helens (40.2%) contrast sharply with rural Northwich (54.7%) and Warrington (55.3%), where quieter roads and simpler junctions work in learners' favour. Automatic drivers found the most success at Northwich with 52.5%, likely benefiting from less congested country roads. The region saw 63,479 tests from 2024 to 2025, with the M56 corridor centres generally offering better conditions than those near Liverpool and Manchester.
