Driving Instructor of the Year 2025

For the past three years, we have proudly celebrated excellence with the Driving Instructor of the Year event. Let’s continue to strive for greatness and recognise the outstanding contributions in our field!

Will you be our Driving Instructor of the Year 2025?

The event takes place each year, at our Donington Park training facility, in late Autumn and it sees the regional winners take on a series of challenges to determine the most efficient and best driver, following initial identification of the regional winners based on those with the most 5-star Trustpilot reviews in their localities.

Seb Goldin, CEO of RED Driver Training commented:

“We’re extremely proud of the high standards our instructors work to, and it’s brilliant to see it being recognised in our students’ reviews. RED Driver Training is the most reviewed driving school in the country, demonstrating the calibre of our talented instructors.”

Comments from Instructors that attended:

“Thank you to RED for organising such a fab event. I think as I have been to all three of the events I am qualified to say that the 2024 event was excellent, and the best of the lot.”

“Thoroughly enjoyed the event, and happy to meet other members of the RED team. Especially Peter, as I did learn from him, things to take back with myself to incorporate into my teaching methods. Not only did I just have fun but gained to become better instructor.”

“Just to say I had a brilliant time and loved meeting other instructors who I am now keeping in touch with.”
