    So my wife has just started learning, i've just received my renewal quote of 570 fully comp, or 440 3rd party, i know it's an older car but going fully comp so can drive other cars and i have zero luck with windows

    Now i've added her to my policy as a learner and that 570 has jumped to 770, not too bad, when she passes her test will that go up or down??

    People have been telling me different things, on one hand, while she's a learner there will always be an experienced driver with her, hence i thought it may go down, but when she passes she'd be out on her own, which led me to believe it'd go up, but quite few people have said it would actually go down

    Should reduce slightly when she passes the test though some insurers apply a loading for novice drivers so it might not be much or a reduction.
