About this test centre
Of the DVSA motorcycle module 2 centres across England, Enfield is the one covering Enfield, Greater London and the surrounding EN2 6LD area. The routes are built around the roads the centre's examiners can reach inside the test's time budget. Across 2009-10-2012-13 the DVSA recorded 9.6K tests at Enfield. A solid mid-range sample, the data is reliable enough that the rank position below isn't an artefact of small numbers.
If you've been told Enfield is "an easy centre" or "a hard one", the data won't fully back that. 54.5% is 17.7 points below the UK motorcycle module 2 average of 72.2%, which is rank #135 out of 135. DVSA doesn't break out first-attempt figures for Enfield in DRT122C, so the split between first-time and retake pass rates isn't published for this centre.
All figures shown are aggregated from the DVSA quarterly statistical release covering the most recent reporting periods available. Pass-rate calculations exclude tests cancelled by the candidate or examiner. Sample sizes and methodology are described in the source attribution at the foot of this page.
What learners should know about Enfield
- Enfield is in the lower tier of pass rates nationally. That isn't an indictment of the examiners, it reflects road layout, traffic density, and route mix. Prepare specifically for the centre, not generically.
- Practising the roads around the centre is the preparation that most reliably pays off. Most ADI instructors in Enfield will know the road types and junctions learners commonly meet near the centre.
- If you missed the earlier slots at Enfield, cancellations appear on the official DVSA booking service throughout the day. Check at off-peak times (early morning, late evening) for the best chance of catching one.
Whether you pass at Enfield is not decided by the centre. It is decided by the 15 things an examiner can mark you on, and control, steering is one of the ones that ends attempts early.
DVSA publishes all 21 vehicle safety questions in advance, 14 tell me and 7 show me. You get 2 of them on the day, one at the roadside and one while you are driving. Get one wrong or both wrong and it counts as one driving fault, not two.
