A Good Question

At Pro Coach Driving School in Bexhill, we specialise in automatic driving lessons for learners who want a smooth, stress-free experience.

We’re lucky to receive plenty of enquiries from new drivers every week—always a great sign!
Most people ask about things like provisional driver insurance or whether we recommend private practice. (We do.)

But today’s call was different.
The phone rang. We answered.
The caller asked:
“Are you as good as the AA Driving School?”

That’s a big question! Here’s what we said:

Unlike us, the AA Driving School runs as a franchise. Their instructors are self-employed, not AA employees. They use AA-branded cars and get marketing support—but they also pay a franchise fee.

The caller wanted to know:
“Why would they pay that?”

We explained that many instructors join big brands for help with promotion and credibility. It’s tough to start out alone, especially in a competitive area like Bexhill-on-Sea.
An AA badge can make things easier.

Pro Coach Driving School chose independence. We build our reputation through quality driving lessons in Bexhill, not a badge.
Our advice? Judge an instructor on more than a logo.
Look for extra qualifications, experience, and a proven track record.
