Please read the below carefully…

As you may or may not know, earlier this year I made the announcement that I will not renew my driving instruction authority next year, therefore will not be providing on road driving lessons from March 9th, 2027. 

For more information on why this is happening, please visit: Major Update In Regard To Services!

In the lead up to next year, I will be dialling back on my availability. 

From September 16/09/26 I will no longer be working on Wednesdays with on road driving lessons. This is due to my administration load and health factors.

Currently, from this date of 15/07/26, I am not accepting any new student drivers. An update will be released when I have capacity to allow for new student drivers. 

To my current cohort of student drivers, we will have plenty of time this year and moving into next year to complete your driving journey. 

I hope you will stick with me and finish what we started.   

Yours Sincerely,
Courtenay Rufus
Director and Driving Educator
