My experience with RED Driving School wasn’t good overall. The teaching didn’t feel clear or structured and a lot of the time I had to ask questions just to be shown basic things that should have been explained from the start.
Lessons often felt rushed, and communication outside of lessons wasn’t great either, with slow or no replies to questions at times.
I didn’t feel I was getting the support needed to progress properly. After switching instructors, I improved quickly and eventually passed my test a month later with only 3 minors so the difference in teaching approach was very noticeable. I’ve also learned more in a few lessons with my dad than I did in some of the lessons with the RED school instructor.
If I could give 0 stars I wouldn’t hesitate.

Absolutely appalling conduct from RED Driving School.
While I was physically helping my disabled mother out of the car, a RED driving instructor couldn’t be bothered to wait for a matter of seconds and instead squeezed past us, showing a staggering lack of patience, awareness, and basic human decency. This wasn’t a tight squeeze caused by necessity – it was pure impatience and indifference.
If this is the level of judgement, courtesy, and respect RED instructors show in real-world situations, I dread to think what standards they’re passing on to learner drivers. Road safety isn’t just about mirrors and manoeuvres – it’s about consideration for vulnerable people, something this instructor demonstrated they clearly lack.
To treat a disabled person as an inconvenience is beyond unacceptable. It was rude, reckless, and frankly disgraceful. RED Driving School should be deeply embarrassed that someone representing their brand behaves this way.
I would strongly urge anyone considering RED to think very carefully. If this is how they act when faced with a disabled member of the public, they do not deserve your money or your trust.

My partner had a terribe experience with RED driving school instructor. His instructor was Saeed. At first, everything was okay. But, he repeatedly cancels an early session last minute. He either tell you after the time that you are supposed to meet or through a text a few minutes before. This has been unprofessional. There has been no proper lesson during that time which saddened us it was very expensive.

Extremely bad experience with the instructor Samuel Thomas Goold. Thank god that I went with a new instructor, and have got my full license now. They seem to hire incompetent instructors that cut lessons short without reimbursing you of your time, and don't offer sound quality advice within the few lessons that aren't actually cancelled. Avoid at all costs.

Awful - charge more than anyone else and yet seem to think it is acceptable to cancel lessons. Go elsewhere.

Don't drive with RED. Instructors are incapable on driving safely ( In Bristol BS5) so don't see how they can help pass and be safe on the roads.

Saeed was amazing! He was so patient with me and looked at my weaknesses and how we could make them stronger. I'd been trying to learn to drive for 3 years on and off before meeting Saeed, but after a couple of months, I passed and I felt so confident while doing so. I've always been a nervous driver but not anymore, so I highly recommend Red Driving School as they really did help me. Not being able to drive feels like years ago but it's only been 3 months.... I wouldn't recommend anyone else!
