At Silverstone in April (and it was very wet) we only had one off at the end of the day. You do not need to go fast, just go at the pace you need to in order to apply what you are learning. I found it to be the best thing I have ever done in order to learn better riding skills

You also have a six feet rule so no close passing which gives you lots of space.

Have a great time and post to let us know how it goes!
