Typical Cost of Driving School in Ontario
Driving schools across Ontario offer a range of pricing depending on the type of program and the number of hours included. According to recent industry averages, complete beginner programs that combine theory, in-car lessons, and test preparation generally fall in the range of $800 to $1,600 or more.
Individual lessons outside of full courses typically average between $40 and $80 per hour, depending on the school and location.
Some schools also offer full Beginner Driver Education (BDE) courses that include online or classroom theory, homework, and a set number of in-car lessons. These courses are structured to help learners pass their tests and may qualify them for insurance discounts.
How to Estimate Your Total Cost
To calculate how much you’ll spend on driving school:
- Decide how many lessons you need. Novice drivers may need more lessons than experienced drivers.
- Determine if you want your instructor’s vehicle for the test. This adds cost but generally improves comfort and confidence.
- Add government test fees. These are separate from driving school costs (for example, the first G2 road test and licence fee is separate from lesson costs).
