Our Instructors

 

Make sure your Instructor is a Fully Qualified DVSA Instructor. A Fully Qualified Instructor will display a Green Badge in their car – Some Driving Schools (including National Schools) use Trainee Instructors (who have to Display a Pink Badge) & will charge you the same price for a lesson even though the Instructor is not fully qualified & has very limited experience in teaching pupils to drive

 

Get Recommendations from Family or Friends or ask the Driving School if they have past pupils who would be willing to recommend them

 

Have a Trial Lesson to start with – Paying for a course of Lessons before you’ve even met the Instructor is a Risk – How do you get your money back if you are unhappy. Taking Driving Lessons is like Learning at school – if you get on with the teacher & enjoy the lessons you will progress faster & learn more.

 

A Good Indication on the Trial Lesson is did the Instructor take interest in you? Did they get you Driving or did they spend the whole Lesson sat at the side of the road talking?

 

 

 

Don’t Assume that the Cheapest Quote for Lessons offer the best value for money!!!

 

Be wary of Driving Schools that are cheaper than the average price for your area – this really can be false economy:

 

How and why are they Cheaper?

 

• Is the Instructor Fully Qualified or DSA Registered?

• How old is the Car you will be Learning in?

• Will you be spending half of your Lesson sat at the side of the road talking instead of actually driving?

• Do they limit the amount of miles you do per lesson? This will ultimately lead to you having to take a lot more lessons than you actually might need.

• Is the Driving School struggling for work for some reason that they have to undercharge?

• Are they a School just starting out with limited experience?

• Do they have a Good Reputation? Are they Reliable?

• The general point is that you get what you pay for. At LEAP Driving School we provide Quality, Value for Money, Full Driving Lessons at a Competitive Price.
