New instructors setting their first lesson price
Established ADIs reviewing whether prices need to increase

Business Tools Designed for Driving Instructors
Most calculators are built for general motorists or small businesses. These tools are focused on the way driving instructors actually work: hourly lessons, cancellations, pupil mileage, fuel or charging costs, dual-control vehicles, insurance, tax reserve, franchise fees and admin time.
They are planning tools only, but they can help you make more informed decisions about lesson pricing, vehicle choice and business profitability.
