Chingford pass rate
Car practical tests taken at Chingford between April 2025 to March 2026. A centre's rate says as much about who books there as about the roads around it — a centre serving mostly first-time teenage candidates will sit below one serving retests — so read it as context, not as a reason to travel.
223rd highest of the 231 centres DVSA publishes a rate for.
