PCV training above and beyond
I have recently undertaken a PCV training programme with Karl Barham at Carousel Buses, High Wycombe. Suffice to say the quality of training was excellent. Karl goes above and beyond to ensure you’re not just trained to test standard, but able to withstand the highest of pressure situations driving a large vehicle as well as passing on excellent roadcraft to his students. I greatly enjoyed my training and have lessons to take with me every day in service going forwards. Thank you Karl!

We had problems from the start
We had problems from the start with dates, training being cancelled/moved and not being notified and long times between tests/training with no communication despite sending emails.
Would not use this company again.

Good, great and incredible
I find it challenging to determine where to begin. The name James Bond often comes to mind when discussing iconic figures, while in the realm of football, David Beckham stands out prominently. Additionally, when considering exceptional PCV bus instructors, Karl Barham is undoubtedly noteworthy. He is an outstanding instructor, possessing remarkable training skills and significant experience. His contributions to HGVC are invaluable. Thank you, Sir Karl Barham.

HGVC - Karl Barham
My instructor, Karl Barham, at HGVC was amazing! He has a great character and is a great person to be around. He was very clear in his teaching and his learning techniques, making the whole experience so enjoyable. Karl also guided us through many real-life scenarios, which helped us feel prepared and confident. Thanks to his great instruction, we were all able to pass on our first try, even without any prior bus driving experience!
I would highly recommend him to anyone!

I was trained by Karl Barham
I was trained by Karl Barham, this man went to the limit to get me well taught, prepared and informed for not just my bus driving test, but for life. His techniques and quality are second to none. I'm so grateful that I got a great guy as well as an excellent instructor. I'm still yet to try his cooking so I can see if it as good as his driving instruction! We've had some fun times alongside learning so much from him. We've had laughs like a bunch of kids haha.
It's a shame that my time with him has come to an end because a person like him has been such a pleasure to deal with. Karl, I wish you well in all your decisions and in life and I won't forget how much knowledge and fun times you've given me.
See you around,

The best PCV trainning
I had the privilege to be trained by Graeme and Mick and obtained my PCV license within three weeks.
Graeme was my my main trainer, and the knowledge and experience this gentleman has is second to none. His commentary, while driving pointing out various hazzards and techniques on how to manage them, will stay with me for a long time.
Trainning at its very best. Thank you, Graeme and Mick.

Mick is a legend
What can I say!! I had mick as my instructor and what a guy he is!! Showed me the ropes and even though it took a while for all the information and actions to sink in, I finally cracked it. I honestly believe that if I didn’t have mick I wouldn’t have got to where I am today. Very valuable asset to the company and wish him luck in all he does. Also a mention for Graeme as well, will never forget wheel nuts 😜Thanks for everything mick LFM 😂
