5 Star Driver Training - The ADI National Training Academy
TWO GREAT DRIVING SCHOOLS. ONE BRIGHT FUTURE. 🌟
We’re incredibly proud and excited to announce that, from 1st November 2026, Teesside School of Motoring and Five Star Driver Training are joining forces! 🚗💨
Two respected driving schools, bringing together their experience, passion and commitment to excellence — all under one name:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
FIVE STAR DRIVER TRAINING
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
A BIGGER TEAM. GREATER COVERAGE. EVEN MORE OPPORTUNITIES.
This exciting new chapter means we’re able to offer even more to learner drivers, qualified instructors and those looking to begin a rewarding career in driver training.
🚗 WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR OUR LEARNERS?
✅ Greater coverage across the whole of Teesside and surrounding areas.
✅ Improved lesson availability, including daytime, evening and weekend lessons.
✅ Modern, up-to-date teaching techniques, helping you become a safe, confident and independent driver for life.
✅ A professional, supportive team committed to delivering a quality service from your very first lesson to your driving test and beyond.
🚗 ALMOST 40 CARS ACROSS TEESSIDE AND THE SURROUNDING AREAS!
With almost 40 driving school cars operating across Teesside and the surrounding areas, Five Star Driver Training aims to provide greater flexibility, improved availability and a service that meets the needs of our learners.
We understand that not everyone works traditional 9-to-5 hours. Whether you’re working shifts, evenings, weekends or other unsociable hours, finding time for driving lessons can sometimes be a challenge.
That’s why we’re committed to offering lessons throughout the day, during evenings and at weekends, giving you more opportunities to learn at times that suit your lifestyle, work commitments and personal circumstances.
Our aim is to make learning to drive as convenient, accessible and flexible as possible, without compromising on the quality of instruction you receive.
MORE INSTRUCTORS. MORE AVAILABILITY. MORE FLEXIBILITY. ALL WITH THE FIVE STAR COMMITMENT TO QUALITY. ⭐
❤️ TO OUR EXISTING LEARNERS
We want to reassure all our existing pupils that our commitment to your driving journey remains as strong as ever.
You’ll continue to receive the same personal, professional service you’ve come to expect, now backed by the strength, experience and resources of a growing Five Star team.
Your progress, confidence and success will always remain at the heart of everything we do.
🚀 WE’RE GROWING — AND WE WANT AMBITIOUS INSTRUCTORS TO GROW WITH US!
We’re creating exciting opportunities for motivated driving instructors who want to be part of a forward-thinking, supportive and expanding driving school.
🤝 Fantastic low-cost franchise packages, offering excellent value, professional support and the opportunity to be part of a growing and respected team.
📈 Exciting opportunities for Area Team Leaders, giving ambitious instructors the chance to take on greater responsibility, develop their leadership skills and play a key role in our continued expansion.
