a2om:commendations

"It is with real conviction that I send this letter to you in support of the a2om project.  I believe that a2om is the type of product that we at Wellington should be supporting as another extension of the duty to prepare pupils for their adult lives."

Wellington College

"I have reviewed a2om's curriculum and feel that this may be a company who could enhance your children's driving education needs.

The academy's approach is more holistic than others that we have seen before.  It goes a long way to implement the thinking and measures designed to enhance the driving abilities of young people and, above all, help equip them to drive safely for life."

Ampleforth College

"I write to recommend to you a scheme for Driving Instruction which we have been introduced to and which I believe could serve your sons and daughters extremely well.

I recommend this course to you not only because I believe that a2om graduates will be far safer on the road but also because by completing the course there are opportunities for significant reductions in car insurance premiums for graduates, which means that the course effectively pays for itself in 2-3 years."

Hurtwood House

"After consultation with Housemasters, I write to commend to you a scheme for Driving Instruction which we believe will serve your sons well.

The course is run by the a2om academy, Britain's first university-affiliated driving school, which has developed a curriculum with Cranfield and Waikato Universities to help young people to become better drivers.  Students will learn that their attitude and behaviours behind the wheel make just as much a contribution to safe and responsible driving as learning how to indicate or change gear."

Winchester College

"We have been approached by an organisation called a2om, which runs a course tailor-made for schools.  It offers tuition not only to enable pupils to pass the test, but also to help them become better drivers.  While we do not feel it is appropriate directly to recommend any particular course, we are sufficiently impressed by what they offer to pass on their details to you.  I hope you will find them useful."

Cheltenham College

"I write to commend to you a scheme for Driving Instruction which we have been trialling at Harrow and which I believe will serve your sons extremely well.

I commend this course to you because I believe that a2om graduates will be safer on the road.  By completing the course, all graduates will receive significant insurance reductions which help to mitigate the cost of the course."

Harrow School

"Until now, driving tuition in Britain has all too often focussed on simply passing the test.  a2om takes a much more holistic approach and the students will learn that their attitude, behaviour and experience behind the wheel will all play a major role in making them safer drivers.  The course is delivered by good, university-trained instructors, overseen by the a2om's Managing Director, who is the former head of the Driving Standards Agency."

Bradfield College

"One of my nightmares as a Headmaster is to have to contact parents to tell them of the death or severe injury to their child due to a road accident.  Now that my own children are of driving age, the anxiety continues throughout the holidays!

Normally I would be reluctant to endorse particular companies, but in this particular case I really do believe that lives could be saved and therefore I am bending my self imposed rule to draw it to your attention."
