At Makalo Driving School, our franchise operates on a fixed fee basis — meaning there are no hidden or unexpected charges. Everything is clear, comprehensive, and inclusive (excluding the car). We believe in supporting our instructors right from the start, which is why we offer a start-up period that guarantees new pupil introductions, ensuring you begin your journey with confidence.
Additionally, you’ll enjoy two weeks franchise-free each year, giving you a little extra flexibility and breathing room. Plus, when you train with us, you can recover your full training fees through our Trainee-to-Franchisee Cashback Incentive, making your investment even more rewarding.
