If you have not received an e-mail, check your junk folder. Although not essential to take to the theory test centre, it’s advisable to print this e-mail to show to the centre staff if any problems arise.

If you hold the older style paper licence, a valid passport must be provided along with your paper licence at Reading Theory Test Centre. If you do not hold a passport, you will need to apply for a new driving licence which has the plastic card.
Failure to provide these forms of identification will result in you being unable to take the theory test and also lose your test booking fee. If you have misplaced your licence, contact the DVLA who will send you a replacement. See the learning to drive section for information on obtaining a new licence.

It is amazing It has gained My knowledge
Staff were very rude. When you're about to go into a test and you're feeling nervous that is not what you need. They should be friendly and polite. Also had someone talking very loudly and they didn't try and stop them, distracting the whole room and putting everyone off their tests. Very unfair. I would go out of my way to go to another test centre. Other than that, easy to find. Car park just down the road on the other side, was expensive though.
