Our Instructors – Learn with Experts

Driving Standards Agency badge

All AA instructors display a green DSA (Driving Standards Agency) badge in their windscreen to prove they've completed 12 to 18 months of training, and passed an exam testing their ability to teach you.

Check that there's a green badge in the windscreen of your instruction car. This means your instructor is fully-qualified. Some driving schools place learners with a trainee instructor - with a pink DSA badge, and still charge full lesson rates without revealing that the instructor isn't fully qualified.

We're the only national driving school exclusively using fully qualified instructors. The green badge in the windscreen of your AA Driving School car assures you that your instructor is a fully qualified expert.
