Read this one carefully
Berwick-On-Tweed took 381 first attempts in 2025/26. At that volume a handful of results moves the percentage by a point or more, so the rank is a lot less meaningful than it looks — small rural centres dominate both ends of the table for exactly this reason.
What this number does and doesn't tell you
It isn't a list of easy tests
Examiners mark to the same standard everywhere. What differs is the roads — a centre surrounded by fast rural A-roads and one in dense city traffic are testing different things, and they draw different candidates. Booking a test an hour away to chase a percentage usually means testing on roads you've never driven.
First attempts, deliberately
The headline rate you see elsewhere folds in retests, so a centre with a lot of second and third attempts looks worse without anything about the centre having changed. This is DVSA table DRT122C, which counts first attempts only.
Teaching around Berwick-On-Tweed?
Roadworthy tracks each pupil against the DVSA syllabus and shows a test-readiness gauge, so the decision to put someone in for their test is based on what they can actually do rather than how many hours they've had. It also orders your teaching day by pickup so you're not driving across town between lessons.

Frequently asked questions
What is the pass rate at Berwick-On-Tweed driving test centre?
52.5% of first attempts pass at Berwick-On-Tweed, from 381 first attempts in 2025/26. That is above the national first-attempt average of 50.5%, ranking it 168 out of 322 UK car test centres. Figures are DVSA's own (table DRT122C).
Is Berwick-On-Tweed an easy test centre?
No test centre is easier than another in how it is marked — examiners work to the same national standard. What varies is the road network and the mix of candidates. A centre on quiet rural roads and one in heavy city traffic produce different pass rates while testing to identical criteria, so a higher percentage is not a softer test.
Should I book my test at a centre with a higher pass rate?
Usually not. Travelling to an unfamiliar centre means taking the test on roads you have never driven, which tends to cost more than the difference in percentages gains you. Test at the centre whose roads you have actually been taught on.
