Each year road crashes cause unnecessary trauma to Queensland families. Too many students will suffer death or serious injury soon after obtaining their provisional licences. Statistics show that the first three months of a young driver’s provisional licence are the most at-risk period in their driving career. We believe that we can help avoid this trauma by educating students at this early stage in their driving experience. Our private facilities and the extensive experience of our educators ensure that both your licensed and unlicensed students can become the safest drivers whilst in the safest of hands.

This course is subsidised by the Queensland Government’s Road Safety Grants Scheme, who have contributed $120 to each place on our Student Driver Course.

What age groups/year levels is this course best designed for?
Students can attend this course from as early as Year 10. Ideally, students would attend this course during their Year 11 studies, when most students are aged 16-17 and are obtaining their Learner or Provisional licences.
Do students need a driver’s licence and/or prior driving experience?
