Coalville Test Centres and Pass Rates
Leicester's two centres dominated the 33,768 tests from 2024 to 2025, with the city's complex inner ring road and diverse residential areas creating consistently challenging conditions. Leicester Cannock Street struggled most at 37.7%, well below the national average, while Leicester Wigston managed 43.9% and Loughborough achieved 43.7%. The city's mix of narrow terraced streets, busy multicultural shopping areas, and confusing signage around the Cultural Quarter tests learners' confidence and observation skills. Women achieved between 34.7% and 43.2% across the centres, typically trailing men by 4-5 percentage points. Automatic drivers found particular difficulty, with success rates ranging from just 33.6% at Loughborough to 40.2% at Leicester Wigston.
