We’ve just
completed this year’s survey which analyses Independent and
Franchised Driving Instructor questionnaire feedback and examines some of the
changes experienced by Instructors over the last 12 months.
Here’s 5 interesting snippets from the report:
1- The national average hourly lesson price (after deducting
the cost of offers and discounts) now stands at £24.85 which represents
a 7.9% increase on last year’s figure.
2- UK Driving Instructors are now achieving an average gross
income of £730.59 per week which is £44.59 more than last year.
3- Through a combination of working more hours and by
increasing their hourly rate by more than £2.50 per hour, female Instructors
have achieved an average gross income increase of £123.10 per week.
4- 93% of Driving Instructors are satisfied with their
job and with such high levels of job satisfaction we’d expect this to translate
into a very positive learning experience for their students.
5- The majority of the UK’s Driving Instructors see their
earnings increasing further over the next 12 months – the future’s bright!
