Driven by passion, backed by experience

McDougall's Driving School is an independent driving school based in Buxton, Derbyshire offering tuition in Buxton, Chapel en le Frith, Whaley Bridge and close surrounding areas.

The business was founded in 2010 by Lynsey's father David and she joined in 2011 when she completed her training and qualified as an ADI (Advanced Driving Instructor). Lynsey's father sadly passed away in 2016 from a short illness so she took over the reins and continued the family business, which has gone from strength to strength.

ADI certification is given by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) which is part of the Department of Transport. All ADIs must pass stringent tests and are regularly checked against the standard to ensure a high level of professional ability is maintained.

At McDougall's Driving School, we don’t just teach driving — we build confident, capable drivers ready for any road.

Whether you're a first-time learner or just brushing off the rust, our calm, professional instructors tailor every lesson to your needs.

We believe in a supportive learning environment, modern techniques, and clear progress. Every student not only passes — they thrive. Your journey behind the wheel starts here, with us beside you every turn of the way.
