We commit to being an entirely carbon neutral driving school, offering ‘Green’ lessons to our students. We wholly appreciate that driving a car (and therefore learning to drive) is a carbon intensive process, along with the manufacture of the car and its components. Therefore, we offset our full driving school carbon usage, covering all the vehicles used by our instructors. For the time period July 2024 to July 2025, our total driving carbon footprint was 9.47 tonnes, and we have offset this via VCS certified carbon reduction programmes across the world. We are proud that this is the sixth year we have done this, and can say with full conviction that we are proud to have been carbon neutral since July 2019.
We put emphasis on eco driving, basic maintenance and manufacturer specific economy drivers. We discuss fuel economy, and the environmental impact that this effects. In summary, we challenge our students to understand their environmental impact from driving, and how they can combat this effectively.
To continue our drive towards a sustainable future, we recently started teaching in a fully electric MG4. This has proved to be a huge hit with our learners, and has significantly reduced our carbon spend.
