An award-winning driving school trusted across Manchester, known for experienced instructors, reliable teaching and a friendly way of learning.

Our instructors live and work in the communities we teach. That means when you book driving lessons in M3, M4 or M5, you’ll be coached on the busy city-centre junctions and Salford routes that build real skill. If you’re learning in M7, M8 or M9, we’ll guide you through Cheetham Hill, Crumpsall and Blackley’s mixed-traffic streets. For learners in M11, we focus on the urban layouts around Clayton, Openshaw and Gorton. And for M24, M25 and M35 (Middleton, Prestwich, Failsworth), you’ll gain experience on a blend of residential roads and A-routes towards your chosen test centre.

Testimonials

Here’s what our happy drivers had to say about our services:

Fab driving school. My instructor is Mohammed Kibria and he is a fab instructor to have. He always puts a smile on your face. He is so helpful and I am so grateful to have him as an instructor.

Thanks very much to Lewis and Bobby for the excellent service!! Lewis managed to arrange a last minute 2 hour driving lesson for my son with Bobby today which he throughly enjoyed!! Can’t recommend highly enough. Nothing was too much trouble. 👍🏻👏🏻👊🏻

Passed this morning first time with Lewis, can’t thank him enough for all the time and patience he had with me. Really helpful for anyone who’s a really nervous person, would definitely recommend!!

Yesterday I passed my part 3 and became an ADI (fully qualified) 18 months or so ago I was talking to Lewis who thought it would be a good idea for me to think of becoming a driving instructor. I was in a secure full time job so this was a huge risk. one that I now feel was so worth it. I have done my training with Lewis and mainly Jess, but both equally as brilliant. they've given me so much confidence and belief throughout my training and even picked me up when times got hard and I didn't believe in myself. I'd 110% recommend Jess and Lewis and Elite Driving Academy to anyone wanting a change of career. These guys are the best , me and my family owe you both the world for helping me to change our lives for the better. Can't wait now to continue my journey with you but as a full ADI.

Hugh thanks to Anbreen as she helped me pass first time, she’s an amazing instructor. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone. She’s the best. Again thank you so much for helping me pass 🙌
