What are we doing now to keep our students safe?
We have introduced some further safety measures to ensure that we protect our students and staff from Coronavirus.
Face Masks
- If you choose to wear a mask during your training then please feel free to bring one and wear it. It is not mandatory when training.
- Our instructors are not required to wear a mask; however, you can now request your instructor wear one if this makes you more comfortable.
- Face Masks must be worn by the student when taking a DVSA practical test.
Cleaning, Sanitising and Temperature Checks.
- Temperature checks are mandatory for all staff, students and visitors entering our premises. This is recorded on a daily basis. If you record a temperature higher then 37.8?C you will be asked to immediately leave the premises and book a test. You will not be allowed back on site until you have a negative test result.
- There are sanitising stations around our depots for use by our students and staff.
- Vehicles are wiped down with antibacterial wipes before and after training sessions.
We are also asking all staff and students to provide their contact information, so that we are able to trace you and inform you of any breakouts that may occur at our depots. This data will be securely stored and destroyed after 30 days.
Some of our students have been asking some questions surrounding what is happening with training and testing, so we have complied a list of the most frequently asked questions from our students

Yes, 2 Start are operating as normal
Will my money be safe in event of a national lockdown
Yes, everything will be placed on hold until we are able to resume safely.

During the Spring Lockdown back in March, 2 Start Training were able to safely stay open and deliver training to our students. We were able to offer Online CPC driver CPC training whilst our students & staff were at home. Later as the country started to open back up, we were safely able to offer further training such as forklift and Hiab using safe social distancing methods.
We are still running our Online CPC courses which you can book online now! If you are currently on furlough or have a spare day off – now is the perfect time to get those qualifications up to date.
We can also offer IPAF theory courses which you are able to complete via e-learning then complete your practical training on our premises.
We are also offering our Transport Manager OLAT Refresher CPC online too along with DGSA Training courses, contact us for more information and course dates.
