Do week long intensive driving lessons work?

Yes and No.
If you learn well they can work BUT if you are starting to drive from the beginning, I'd suggest that you have some lessons first.
An intensive course can help immensely in passing a Driving Test but not really in learning.
Learn the basics and get a little confidence and then take an intensive course to help make it all fresh for your test. Some course actually offer a system where, if you fail, they will carry on the course until you pass.
That may cost a little more though.
Ask at the places that offer the courses for more details especially on guaranteed passes.

Good Advice so far. Beware of some Driving Scools where only shared tuition is available. Your 30 hour course means you drive for only 15 hours and sit in the back watching (and perhaps learning) while someone else drives.

Also you will not be allowed to take your Test if the Instructor doesn't think you are up to scratch. His performance is under scrutiny by the DSA so he will not allow you to take the Test unless you have a good chance. There is no refund and you will lose your Test fee.

Intensive courses on a 1 to 1 are better value but will cost more. Best suited to someone who already has the basics and just needs to polish up their skills.

I have done a number of 2/3 day Intensives at my driving school with good pass rates but wouldn't recommend them for a beginner.

Depends on you and your ability to learn.Stay away from anyone that offers a guaranteed pass. nothing is guaranteed

Do it. You won't regret it. And you might get a discount on insurance.

I would say a waste of money..
You need to practice, have use of a car. Practice makes perfect..
Find a good friend or relative to help you along..

It depends on you as a person and the style of learning you prefer
I did my driving instruction and test this way and it suited me and i passed first time

Yes i can say they most definitely do work as i passed my test in September with a company in Blackpool , although it is all based on the person , confidence ,etc i thought it was money well spent ( Â£250 ) all in , i opted for the 2 day intense course with test at the end of it !
But i had already passed my theory test a year earlier !

Here is the truth. God's design news paper of all things added
after the perfect design of man's blessed heavens, shows that
demonic problems in young men became severe in those areas of driving like suicide bombers, due to they were not involved with the repair, nor the creation of those injured's souls.
When you get out to drive(work) the only part of driving that has
any length or document in actual report. It is mind boggling and
for one, I like my design of solar powered for its slow qualities.
You must take, peace, health, logic, and slow not like express
drivers to this new report, because it is now realistic. Driving
school is required for best insurance. New solars are top
speed 50 for long hauls, and 30 in traffic. Brakes to this day
only are scientifically proven to 60 mph.
