About Us
Welcome to Barrie Driving School, your trusted partner on the journey to becoming a safe, confident, and responsible driver. Our commitment to excellence and adherence to Ministry guidelines make us the preferred choice for driver training and education. As a Ministry Approved Driving School and Beginner Driver Education (BDE) course provider, we take pride in our decades of experience and our unwavering dedication to shaping responsible drivers.
Barrie Driving School offers comprehensive driver training for G1, G2, and G drivers, along with Ministry of Transportation (MTO) approved BDE courses. We understand the importance of a solid foundation in driver education, and our courses reflect just that. Our BDE program consists of 20 hours of classroom or online e-learning and 10 hours of in vehicle training, complemented by 10 hours of flexible instruction (homelinks) required for certification. Completing these three components within one year ensures your Driver’s License History (DLH) is updated to confirm your successful completion and graduation from the BDE course.
With over 40 years of experience, Barrie Driving School has become synonymous with excellence in driver training. We proudly serve high school students across the GTA and York Region, offering flexibility, affordability, and high-quality instruction. Our impressive road test passing ratio speaks to our commitment to producing skilled and responsible drivers.
We understand that every student’s needs are unique. That’s why we offer both online and in-person courses, each equipped with additional safety protocols to ensure your well-being. Our team of driver training specialists comprises experienced, professional, and friendly instructors. They are all certified by the MTO and undergo annual evaluations by our company owner to maintain the highest standards.
Our in-class locations are designed to create an educational yet enjoyable atmosphere. We believe in preparing our students to be the best and safest drivers they can be. In addition to our in-person classes, we offer a digital e-learning curriculum, all of which are Ministry approved. Our courses are available year round, including weekend classes, evening classes, 4-day holiday courses, and weekday courses during the summer holidays. If you miss a session, don’t worry; you can make it up at any point within a year.
At Barrie Driving School, we don’t just teach you to drive; we teach you to thrive on the road. Our experienced, friendly, and patient instructors work with your schedule, providing one-on-one in-vehicle appointments. We allow our students to concurrently take both the in-class/online course and in-vehicle lessons for a faster program completion. We treat our students like family, providing transparent pricing without hidden costs. Your safety is our top priority, and we are always available to answer your questions. If you have inquiries
