Bentley School of Motoring

Becoming a driving instructor is more than just a job – it’s a career that can be both rewarding and flexible. There’s nothing quite like the satisfaction of helping someone achieve the freedom and independence that comes with passing their driving test.

At Bentley School of Motoring, our principal trainer, Paul Bentley, has almost 20 years of experience in the driver training industry. Paul has been trained to ORDIT standards and is preparing for his ORDIT test, bringing a depth of knowledge and skill that has already helped many trainees qualify as Approved Driving Instructors (ADIs). Most of those who trained with us have gone on to join our team as full-time franchisees – a real testament to the quality of training and support provided.

Why Train With Us?

• Proven track record – successful trainees who are now confident ADIs.
• Flexible training agreements – clear, simple terms with manageable payments.
• Lower franchise fees – while you’re on a trainee licence, so you can earn while you learn.
• 1-to-1 training – focused, mostly in-car training with Paul, plus access to our instructors’ WhatsApp group for ongoing advice and support.
