NDIS Disability Driving Program

Empowering Independence through Comprehensive Driver Training

Is learning to drive one of your NDIS goals? NDIS funding may be used to support driving lessons for eligible participants under “Improved Daily Living”, following an Occupational Therapy Driving Assessment and recommendations.

As a registered NDIS provider, Mel Moore’s Driving School is dedicated to delivering comprehensive driver training tailored to individuals with NDIS funding. Operating across the Wollongong region, our specialised program offers support and guidance for participants working towards greater independence through driving.

Our instructor has received specialised training aligned with NDIS guidelines, ensuring a professional and personalised approach to supporting each participant’s individual needs. Driving lessons can commence once an Occupational Therapy Driving Assessment has been completed and recommendations have been provided.



With a proven track record of assisting NDIS clients, our specialised driving program helps participants build confidence, independence and practical driving skills. Your road to independence starts with the right assessment, recommendations and support.

Any lessons cancelled within 24hrs of the booking time may encounter a cancellation fee (cancellation fee is the full cost of the lesson).

How the NDIS Driving Program Works

NDIS participant learning to drive

Before NDIS-funded driving lessons can begin, participants will usually need to complete an Occupational Therapy Driving Assessment. This assessment helps determine the participant’s driving goals, support needs and any recommendations required before practical driving lessons commence.

Step 1:

Initial Enquiry

Complete the driving assessment enquiry form with Modified Living so their occupational therapy team can gather the participant’s details and understand their driving goals and support needs.

Step 2:

Occupational Therapy Driving Assessment

A qualified Occupational Therapist will complete an assessment to review the participant’s abilities, goals and requirements for safe driving. This may include identifying whether modifications, specialised instruction or additional supports are recommended.

Step 3:

Assessment Recommendations

Once the assessment is complete, recommendations will be provided based on the participant’s individual needs. These recommendations help guide the type of driving support and lesson structure required.

Step 4:

Driving Lessons Can Begin

Once the assessment and recommendations are complete, NDIS-funded driving lessons can commence with our specialised driving instructor, in line with the Occupational Therapist’s guidance.
