I recently paid for the instructor course and after paying the money found the support none existent with nobody answering my phone calls and emails. Tried to get a refund and got told no chance even with there 14 days grace. They are fraudulent liars and whoever is responsible for all these 5 star reviews must work for the company. I am now £1299 out of pocket!

Amazing supportive team

Since the very first time I got in contact about starting my ADI training, my instructor Gary and the entire team in the office have been so supportive and helpful. Knowing that I can contact anyone of the team for support is so reassuring and has helped me pass part one of my training.

The team at DITA are friendly, approachable and want to see you succeed. They supplied the necessary resources and personal support for my studies for my ADI part one test, which I passed this month. I am looking forward to my continued learning and development as I work towards qualifying as a driving instructor.

Choose Gary as your trainer, he’ll steer you right

Over the moon to have passed my ADI part 3 first attempt today. I know without a doubt I couldn’t have done it without Gary and the whole team at system.
Gary strikes the perfect balance of making you aware of where you need to improve and also instilling confidence on the things that you do well.
He always went the extra mile, taking time out of his day to answer any questions I would send him and always adapted to what I needed each training session.
It really feels like he’s coaching you as the individual, and his area knowledge, technical expertise and years of teaching experience are invaluable.

My training with System Driving School has been amazing. Especially with my instructor Andy Rampley. He is so knowledgeable and understanding when giving advice. I wouldn’t have been able to pass without his help! Thank you!

System Driving School Feedback

Joined system earlier this year and since then they have been nothing but supportive. Gary has sent me regular texts keeping me informed of courses coming up. I have passed part 1 ( the theory test) and am currently working towards part 2 (the practical test).

I 100% recommend the DITA!

I have recently finished my Part 2 training with DITA and I am over the moon to say I’ve passed my part 2 test last week. My trainer, Gary Battison, has been amazing throughout the process. He is professional, knowledgeable, and really helped me prepare thoroughly for the test.

I would definitely recommend DITA to anyone looking for high-quality instructor training. Passing this stage has made me really excited to continue my journey, start my Part 3 training, and finally become a fully qualified driving instructor. Thanks, Gary!
