Run Your Own Business with the support of Matt's
Matt's Driving School offers a franchise model tailored for both potential driving instructors and approved driving instructors who want to run their own business while benefiting from established systems and a recognisable brand.
Franchisees receive structured onboarding, a suite of marketing assets and practical guidance to build a reliable pupil base. The model combines autonomy over your diary and teaching style with ongoing personalised support, a low weekly franchise fee and ongoing support to grow your local reputation.
ADI/PDI
Whether you're a PDI or an ADI you keep full control of lesson delivery within agreed standards while benefiting from Matt's Driving School brand recognition, training materials and business processes that reduce the time spent on administration and marketing. The result is a quicker route to a steady pupil list than starting independently.
Structured onboarding and continuous training
New franchisees follow a clear onboarding programme that covers operational procedures, lesson planning templates, vehicle signage and compliance with DVSA standards. Each instructor receives one-to-one mentoring from Matt, plus regular inputs on pupil retention, pass-rate techniques and safeguarding. Ongoing training keeps you up to date with best practice and helps you expand your offering, such as advanced driving techniques Matt learnt within the emergency services.
Marketing assets and reliable pupil generation
Franchisees benefit from marketing support and locally targeted campaigns. You receive branded materials, a profile on the Matt's Driving School website, social media templates and ready-to-use local advertising. A booking and enquiry system helps manage enquiries, lesson scheduling and follow-ups so you spend less time chasing leads and more time teaching. Practical guidance on referral schemes and local partnerships is provided to build a dependable pupil pipeline.
Transparent fees, financial clarity and personalised support
The franchise operates with a competitive weekly fee structure that is intentionally low to let instructors retain the majority of their earnings. Fee arrangements are straightforward and transparent, with clear information on what is included: marketing, ongoing support and access to systems. Franchisees also get administrative templates, help with useful contacts and dedicated contact with Matt for operational or business-growth queries, ensuring personalised support as you scale.
Teach with confidence, Grow with support
A franchise package built around you!
Matt's Driving School franchise package is designed specifically for instructors who want to focus on delivering quality tuition while scaling a sustainable business. The offer centres on practical, one-to-one training and a support infrastructure that keeps overheads predictable and early earnings protected.
Comprehensive one-to-one training: New franchisees receive tailored in-car instruction from Matt.

Practical mentoring continues into your first lessons so you build confidence with real learners under guidance.
Ongoing 24/7 support: Every franchisee has access to ongoing support direct from Matt. Support includes technical help with the booking platform, advice on difficult pupil cases, guidance on safeguarding and compliance, and prompt assistance with urgent operational queries at any time of day.
Booking and promotional tools: Franchisees are given access to Matt’s booking platform that handles pupil enquiries, payments and scheduling. Promotional tools include branded marketing templates, local area advertising guidance, digital assets for social media and prospect materials to help convert enquiries into paid lessons.
Low weekly fee, deferred franchise charges: A modest weekly fee covers access to the booking platform, promotional assets and core support services to keep your running costs predictable. The franchise fee is nil until you reach a minimum number of pupil referrals, protecting your early earnings while you build a client base.
How we help you grow: We focus on practical measures that increase lesson uptake and retention — structured lesson plans, conversion templates for enquiries, and periodic reviews of your diary and pricing strategy with Matt. Matt’s Driving School combines hands-on training with ongoing operational support so you can concentrate on teaching and growing a profitable tuition business.
