Question

i would like to become a driving instructor but the fee is so high ,how can i get funding for this is thier anyway im 34 from birmingham uk and currently unemployed

Answer 1

If you go through a big driving school like BSM or AA, they often offer a deferred payment plan type of thing, where you can train and once you get your ADI badge, then you start paying them back. If you're unemployed, it's also worth checking out if they know of any government schemes that might help you out.

Answer 2

You can get a career developement loan from the major driver training schools, like BSM.

Answer 3

Do NOT even bother considering to train to be a Driving Instructor.  To finish your training you have got to do a six month placement - my brother started doing it and by the time the school has taken all their costs out of the fees he had collected (car hire, insurance, admin etc) he was left with just £5 to cover his rent, food, loan re-payments, petrol/diesel (yes YOU have got to keep the car filled up with fuel) and other expenses on the next 4 weeks.

Answer 4

yes.

Answer 5

go to your job centre they will tell you if there is funding available

Answer 6

check with the jobcentre, they may be able to give you a business start up grant - i know if you are unemployed they pay if you want to do a HGV driving course or bus driving.
