I paid up front for the course, completed the course and attempted the part 3 test at the advise of my trainer, failed miserably. The examiner made a comment about the company I had used and recommended I find a better trainer.
I then went away and spent another year re training with a much better company before finally passing part 3. It cost me double as I had to pay someone else for the retraining, RED were not interested in providing the training I had paid them for.
After passing we are supposed to do a business course, I am still waiting for them to return my phone calls, despite numerous calls to book onto this course.
If you want to be a driving instructor, there is no shortage of instructors, you are unlikely to earn £30K per year and the RED course is unlikely to deliver success at part 3. Find a local school for your training. At least they will do their best to get you qualified, rather than just treat you as another cash cow.
