Loss of instructor earnings snow

Today I had to cancel all my driving lessons due to snow which for me as an instructor means a loss of earnings which I can't make up for because I might not be able to reschedule all of them for this week.

So is there anything you can do as a driving school owner to minimise loss of income if you have to cancel lessons due to bad weather such as heavy snow or black ice on the road? The true simple answer is NO. If you can't go out driving because it is not safe on the roads, there is not going to be anything work wise that you'll be able to do.



The only other source of income would be something homebased, that might either require the use of the telephone (eg telesales, product or service surveys) or computer based (data entry, typing, etc).

Apart from writing this driving school blog post, I have been stuck at home with my children watching TV mainly the news about the disruption cause by the snow and artic weather and entertaining them.

Hopefully I won't have to cancel tomorrow's lessons, as for the DSA and tests, you will have to contact your local test centre directly.
