You should be able to take the speed awareness course and avoid the points.
I take mine tomorrow!
Been there, done that! Caught for 35 in 30, didn't even realise it until I got the letter in the post and can't even place where it was. It's a much better option than a fine and points and I'm certainly much more vigilant now, although I used to believe I was still driving considerately with regard to current road conditions.
