Summary
We’re a small, island-based driving school in Orkney, and we’re exploring whether we can support Shetland by training local driving instructors over the next year.
We’re not a franchise and we don’t charge large up-front fees. Instead, we focus on training people properly and supporting them long-term.
This could suit someone who:
Lives in Shetland and plans to stay
Enjoys working with people
Wants flexible, self-employed work
Is open to training partly online and partly in Orkney
No previous teaching experience is needed. Training would be structured and supported, with time to build confidence before teaching independently.
If you’re curious rather than certain, that’s absolutely fine – we’re happy to talk things through.
