Gosport Test Centres and Pass Rates
Grantham's single centre processed 5,959 tests between 2024 and 2025, achieving a strong 58.1% pass rate that sits well above the national average. Men slightly outperformed women with 58.9% versus 57%, while automatic drivers managed 52.0%. The market town's mix of A1 approaches, quiet residential streets, and rural test routes provides good variety without the complexity of major urban centres, though the A1 junction work and some narrow historic town centre streets still challenge learners with positioning and observation skills.
