Annual pass-rate breakdown
Isle of Tiree pass rates by test type
Published DVSA first-attempt results for this centre.
First-attempt pass rate
75.0%Supporting count withheld: DVSA published the percentage but withheld the number of tests, so its sample size cannot be checked. Interpret this result cautiously.
DVSA did not publish the overall pass rate or automatic-car pass rate for this centre. No missing rate has been estimated, and no overall pass-rate rank has been calculated.
The first-attempt figure includes first attempts in manual and automatic cars; it is not the overall pass rate across all attempts.
The annual tables cover April 2025 to March 2026. Sample-size warnings follow DVSA's published guidance. These figures do not predict an individual result or prove that one centre is easier. View the official DVSA source tables (opens on GOV.UK in a new tab)
Centre-specific analysis
What the figures mean at Isle of Tiree
Compare the published regional, national and official nearby records, not live booking availability.
How this centre compares
A regional actual-wait rank cannot be calculated because this record is incomplete.
A Great Britain comparison is not available for this measure.
The appointment-availability measure cannot currently be ranked.
Movement across the published series
From October 2025 to August 2026, appointment availability returned to 24 weeks, with no net change between the first and last published points.
The lowest recorded point was 12.5 weeks in February 2026; the highest was 24 weeks in October 2025.
This comparison uses 9 published months, not a complete 12-month series. Missing months do not show no change.
The most useful nearby comparison
Oban has the shortest published actual wait among the matched official alternatives at 18 weeks and is about 63 miles away on DVSA's list.
No matched nearby appointment-availability comparison is available.
Ranks use all centres with a numeric value in the same release. Tied values share a rank. A shorter historical figure does not guarantee an earlier appointment.
Limited record: This page is temporarily excluded from the XML sitemap because the median actual-wait figure is missing and the appointment-availability figure is missing. It remains available for reference and will be checked again after the next DVSA release; missing values have not been estimated.

Alternatives to Isle of Tiree
Since 9 June 2026, a car driving test can normally be moved only to the three nearest centres DVSA lists for the booked centre. The original centre remains an option.
| Centre | Official distance | How long learners actually waited | Current appointment availability | Pass rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Barra | About 49 miles | Not published | Not published | Not published |
| Oban | About 63 miles | 18 weeks | Not published | 66.1% |
| Isle of Mull | About 84 miles | Not published | Not published | 73.8% |
These are different kinds of information: DVSA's nearest-centre list supplies the relationships and approximate driving distances; the waiting and pass-rate figures come from separate published statistics and are not live appointments.
