# AB Driving School - Wakefield
AB Driving School is a driving instruction provider based in Wakefield that serves learner drivers across Leeds and the wider West Yorkshire area. Founded in 2000 by Antony Bedford, a Grade 6 ADI (Approved Driving Instructor), the school specialises in manual and automatic driving lessons for all experience levels, from complete beginners to nervous drivers and those retaking their test.
What distinguishes AB Driving School is their commitment to employing only fully qualified driving instructors. The business explicitly addresses a widespread industry practice where many driving schools employ PDIs (trainee instructors) who are not yet fully qualified—a fact often undisclosed to pupils despite identical pricing. With only 30% of PDI trainees passing their qualifying exams according to DSA statistics, AB Driving School prioritises tuition quality by exclusively using certified professionals.
The school offers a comprehensive range of services beyond standard lessons, including Pass Plus courses, motorway instruction, and refresher lessons for returning drivers. They maintain competitive pricing without compromising educational standards and actively market both male and female instructors to accommodate pupil preferences.
Their customer-focused approach includes tailored one-to-one tuition designed to build confidence in anxious learners and achieve optimal learning outcomes. The business operates a straightforward booking system offering evening, daytime, and weekend lesson slots.
