Another COOL customer has PASSED! πŸ₯³β˜€οΈ
Erica was cooler than Air-Con on this exceptionally hot day here in Ashford! πŸ˜Žβ„οΈ

Erica has worked SO hard to get to this point, juggling work, family life and driving lessons along the way. But today, she passed her test β€” meaning no more fitting driving lessons into an already busy life! πŸš—πŸ’¨

Erica was taught by Jenny, and what a FANTASTIC team they’ve made. πŸ’ͺπŸ‘

Congratulations Erica β€” enjoy your freedom and happy driving! πŸŽ‰πŸš—
Thank you for choosing Avanti Driving School. ❀️

And remember, we also offer Pass Plus β€” and you don't have to have learned with us to take it! πŸ‘

Driving Instructor Career Opportunity:

Would you like to be your own boss and work around your needs?
Have you thought about becoming an Approved Driving Instructor (ADI)?
Then maybe put yourself in the Instructor Seat.
Maybe you have been an ADI and looking to return back to the industry or currently with another driving school and want an understanding, friendly & supportive franchise that will actually look after you.

Avanti Driving School Ltd and our close working partners, offer PDI (TRAINEE) Instructor Training.

ADI = Approved Driving Instructor
and legally MUST display a GREEN badge.
PDI = Potential Driving Instructor, and MUST display a PINK badge
(Other rules and restrictions also apply to TRAINEE instructors)

All instructors start off as a Potential Driving Instructor (also known as a trainee instructor, PDI), once they have passed a DBS check and been approved by the DVSA to continue the training process. So we fully understand the legal process and quality of training thats required and needed to be delivered to PDIs.

The pass rate is relatively low and only approximately 1 in 3 will pass the final exam.
DVSA figures show that In 2024 - 2025 11,749 part 3 exams were taken with a pass rate of 29.7%

2025 -2026 is currently showing a pass rate of 28 -29%

With such a low pass rate, its imperative that you are getting the correct and adequate training. That is why we have produced a training structure, that we believe will absolutely maximise your chances of success.

We are seeing so many PDIs (Trainees) that are not receiving sufficient or adequate training, coming thru and are asking for help. Big national recognised brands, to other smaller companies are not giving the training or support that PDIs believe they are signing up for.

Some helpful tips and advice:

Have you been seen the adverts claiming you can earn in excess of 50k? Whilst working less hours and a offering a better work-life balance? To be honest, the potential to earn 50k a year is there, but you will be highly likely working every hour you are awake. Then you will have to take out expenses. Sometimes thats about Β£200 - Β£250 a week just for a car (no fuel) even if you are on holiday or ill. Also not forgetting income tax and NI.

β€’ Ensure you read your contract thoroughly. Some contracts come with a tie in of anything ranging from about 6 months to 2+ years.

β€’ Some may offer free training, but then may tie you into a 1-3 year contract. Work out what you will be paying each week/month/year and see what the totals will amount to.

β€’ Have they said they will guarantee to provide you a steady flow of pupils?

β€’ Ensure that all training you do is logged and registered. If you are not receiving your training, ask why and when is the next session. Have a trace of all communications, (email/texts/WhatsApp) especially with regards to your training. If you haven't had your training, DON'T just sign it off. There will be no comebacks as you are signing a legal document.

β€’ Shop about. Speak to other training providers. Ask about their T&Cs. What cost, tie-ins are involved. Will they provide you with a vehicle if yours breaks down? Some will have in the small print, *if one is available. Yet you will still be paying the full franchise fee.

β€’ How much training is online? (ZOOM, etc)

β€’ Is your trainer local? Are they at hand to help and assist you? Can they actually fit you in for training?

If the training is poor, you are under no legal obligation to follow thru with the tie in or contract.

The contracts MUST be fair, and you are highly advised to seek legal advice if in ANY doubt.

We Offer & Provide;

β€’ Dedicated support, help & advice
β€’ Books & Online training materials provided
β€’ 1-1 in-car, IN PERSON training (NO ZOOM Nonsense)
β€’ Easy "Pay as you Train" options
β€’ Work around your lifestyle and requirements
β€’ Mock Part 2 and 3 tests included
β€’ NO franchise contract tie in (although we'd love you to stay)
β€’ No gimmicks or hidden agenda.
β€’ Everything is clear and open
β€’ Hours are ONLY signed off once training for that specific topic and time completed

All our costs are upfront and honest.
All Training will be in person, and signed off ONLY when you and your trainer are happy that the hours are COMPLETED and excel above the required STANDARD.
Please feel free to message and ask as many questions as you like.
You are investing in your future, ensure you are getting what you pay for.

Once you pass your final exam, you are free from any tie-in obligations, altho we would love you to stay and be part of a kind honest & supportive team.

Hazard Perception:

The Theory test became part of the process od gaining a drivers licence just over 30 years ago (1996). The Hazard Perception section was added in 2002. Altho Hazard Perception is an integral part of being a road user from Pedestrians, all the way up to Bus & HGV drivers, I Personally fell the Hazard Perception in its current format with a screen and mouse doesn't really give the same effect as actual real life scenarios. Whilst walking- riding- driving everyone should be aware of any potential dangers/hazards. See if you can spot the initial "Potential" hazard and when the actual "Hazard" developed.

Social Media can be a fantastic tool for many things. Including keeping in contact with family and friends, local information, events, clubs and hobbies. It can also be a great tool for businesses by getting your company out there and noticed.
But there are downsides. Some people use social media to stir things up, create fake news and even posts and pages to Scam people.
Just like this person in the picture, posted a comment on one of our pass photos.
No one is allowed to swap tests except for the actual candidate, as its breaking the law.

Never click on links or pages that you dont know or trust. If in ANY doubt seek advice thru the proper channels. And please dont interact with them.

We will NEVER allow comments or pages links onto our platforms.
