Instructor Protection
Build your driving-instructor business with financial protection, expert support and wellbeing services included as part of the Andrew’s Driving School franchise.
Protection that supports you and your business
Self-employment gives you freedom, but it can also leave you exposed when illness, injury or unexpected events prevent you from working.
All Andrew’s Driving School franchisees receive a company-paid personal accident and support package designed to provide financial protection, professional guidance and practical help when it matters most.
Cover applies 24 hours a day, worldwide, subject to the policy terms, conditions and exclusions.
A financial safety net when you cannot work
If an accidental bodily injury affects your ability to work, the policy includes weekly payments and lump-sum benefits depending on the circumstances.
Payable for up to 104 weeks if an accidental injury means you are completely unable to work, following the applicable waiting period.
Payable for up to 104 weeks if you can continue working only in a limited capacity following an accidental injury.
Financial support if an accidental injury permanently prevents you from returning to your usual occupation.
A lump-sum payment intended to provide financial support for your loved ones in the event of accidental death.
Severe permanent injuries may qualify for lump-sum benefits of up to £50,000, depending on the nature and severity of the injury.
Extra help with the costs that follow an accident
The protection package includes a range of additional benefits designed to support recovery and reduce some of the unexpected expenses that can arise after an accidental injury.
Hospital confinement
A daily benefit may be payable when an accidental injury results in an overnight hospital stay, subject to the policy terms.
Dental injury
Support may be available towards necessary dental treatment following accidental damage to natural teeth.
Medical expenses
Certain medical or treatment costs resulting from an accidental injury may be covered within the policy limits.
Fracture benefits
A fixed benefit may be payable for specified fractures, depending on the type and severity of the injury.
Emergency transport
The package may contribute towards certain emergency transport costs following a covered accident.
Home or vehicle adaptations
Support may be available for necessary adaptations following a serious permanent injury.
Protection goes beyond a single payment
A serious injury can affect much more than your weekly income. Recovery may involve treatment, transport, changes at home and time away from your normal routine.
These additional benefits are designed to sit alongside the main weekly and lump-sum cover, helping provide a broader safety net.
Instructor income protection is provided by Aviva . Cover is subject to the applicable policy terms, conditions and exclusions.
Self-employed does not have to mean unsupported
Running your own driving-instructor business can bring questions about tax, legal responsibilities, safety and day-to-day business decisions.
Our franchise protection package gives you access to confidential advice, practical resources and expert guidance when an issue falls outside the normal support provided by our office team.
Professional guidance is available whenever an urgent legal or tax question cannot wait until normal office hours.
Legal and tax helpline
Confidential telephone advice on UK legal and tax matters, available 24 hours a day.
Risk solutions helpline
Expert guidance on business risks including fire, security and safety matters that may affect your work.
Farillio legal platform
Access business guides, legal-document templates, checklists and resources covering areas such as marketing and tax planning.
Confidential help when life or work becomes difficult
Driving instruction can be rewarding, but running a business, managing a busy diary and supporting nervous learners can sometimes bring pressure of its own.
Confidential counselling
Speak privately with a trained professional about personal, emotional or work-related concerns.
Work-life support
Access guidance when workload, family responsibilities or other pressures begin affecting your wellbeing.
Emotional wellbeing
Receive support with stress, anxiety, bereavement, relationship difficulties and other personal challenges.
Support when you need it
Helpline support is available around the clock, subject to the provider’s service terms and availability.
You are building a business, but you are not doing it alone
Our office team supports you with pupils, diary matters, vehicles and day-to-day franchise questions.
The additional wellbeing service gives you somewhere confidential to turn when the issue is personal, sensitive or outside normal business support.
