EXCEL Driving School uses the LD System - the exciting new way to learn to drive.
Let me introduce the unique Learner Driving tuition system (LD System), a system that has been designed for maximum progress and ease of learning.
It is a system where each driving lesson is carefully planned and follows a set programme with clearly defined objectives or 'targets' as we prefer to call them, where the instructors use professional training materials and modern training methods to ensure your training is both effective and enjoyable.

Unfortunately, some driving schools in North Devon do not provide a standard structured training programme - each driving instructor does his or her own thing making it very difficult for you to know how long it will take, what to expect or where you are at any point in the training process. This simply cannot happen with the LD System because you know exactly where you are in the programme at anytime. You know when you are ready to move onto the next driving lesson in the programme because you will know when the current driving lesson targets have been achieved. Each step is clearly defined. You know what you are trying to do and you know when you can do it. Your progress is precisely recorded in your workbook for anyone to see.
Competent instructor who cares
At EXCEL your driving instructor Paul is specially trained to a very high standard and is fully qualified unlike some other driving schools in North Devon whose instructors are trainee instructors and not fullyqualified! The best driving instructors are those that genuinely care about their customers, who are passionate about the job they are doing and who have received the very best training themselves. And where do you find such driving instructors? At EXCEL, of course.
