Driving Course
§ 1 General Provisions
- The course includes online theory classes, practical classes and an internal exam.
- The Driving School undertakes to provide training in preparation for the driving license exam in accordance with best practices and current legal regulations.
- Students have the right to change instructors without giving a reason.
- The school also reserves the right to change instructors if necessary due to scheduling, staff availability, or other important circumstances.
- Students may withdraw from the course at any time without stating a reason. The withdrawal must be submitted by email to: kontakt@gazelka.pl. Refund terms are specified in § 2 of the Regulations.
§ 2 Course Fees and Payment Terms, Refunds
- The course fee includes:
a) theory training – online,
b) first aid training,
c) practical training – driving lessons with an instructor in accordance with legal requirements. One practical lesson lasts 60 minutes,
d) one internal practical exam.
Any additional services or lessons (e.g., extra driving hours) are paid separately in accordance with the current price list. The current price list is available on the official GAZeLka Driving School website: https://www.gazelka.pl/en/price-list - The course fee does not include: fees for medical examinations, state driving exams (at WORD), or the issuance of the driving license.
- Course fees may be paid in full or in interest-free installments according to the installment schedule.
- Payments can be made in three ways: in cash at any office, by traditional bank transfer, or via the Przelewy24 payment system. Przelewy24 allows payment by credit card or instant bank transfer.
- By making a payment via przelewy24.pl, you accept the terms and conditions of Przelewy24.
- If paying by traditional transfer, the transfer should be made at least 2 days prior to the scheduled lessons to ensure the payment is processed in time. For later payments, the student must present a printed bank confirmation before starting the lesson.
- Further driving lessons are scheduled in proportion to payments made – instructors cannot schedule new lessons unless payment for them has been received.
- If a student withdraws from the course for any reason or the agreement is terminated, the student is entitled to a refund of the course fee, minus the cost of the theory and practical lessons already taken (including access to the e-learning platform).
- The refund will be processed within 14 days of receipt of the student’s withdrawal statement or termination of the agreement. The refund will be transferred to the bank account used for the original payment or another account specified by the student in the withdrawal statement.
§ 3 Course Reservation and Price Guarantee
- The price offer is valid for 7 days from the date of the student’s declaration of intent to enroll. To reserve a spot, the student must pay at least the first installment within those 7 days. If the course price changes after the 7-day period, the student may withdraw from the course without incurring any costs. The Driving School guarantees a fixed course price for 4 months from the date of payment (either full or first installment), which is considered sufficient time to complete the theoretical and practical training.
- After this period, if the student has not used all practical hours, the Driving School reserves the right to adjust the cost of remaining hours according to current rates using the following formula: [(current course price / 30 practical hours) – (price at time of registration / 30 practical hours)] × unused hours = surcharge amount. In such cases, the student may withdraw from the agreement within 14 days of receiving the price change notice. The student will receive a refund minus the cost of completed theory and practice hours, and also for missed lessons caused by the student’s absence.
§ 4 Organization of Classes
- The student is required to regularly attend both theory and practical lessons, including using the provided e-learning platform, scheduling lessons, and arriving on time for practical classes.
- If the student has limited availability (e.g., due to travel, work, or other commitments) or fails to attend regularly, the course duration may be extended. This may also affect the availability of practical lesson slots.
§ 5 Absence from Lessons
- Students are responsible for remembering their lesson appointments – while reminder SMS messages are sent, it is ultimately the student’s responsibility to track their schedule.
- The school is not responsible for missed SMS notifications due to technical issues or other external factors.
- If a student fails to appear for a scheduled lesson, the instructor will wait up to 15 minutes and attempt to call the student.
- If there is no contact, the instructor may treat the student as absent and is not required to wait further.
- The Driving School will allow the student to make up missed practical lessons (missed due to the student’s fault) in available time slots. Immediate availability cannot be guaranteed, and making up lessons may extend the course duration. Each such make-up hour will be charged at the current rate for supplementary lessons.
§ 6 Cancelling or Rescheduling Lessons

- The Driving School reserves the right to verify the student’s sobriety at a police station if justified.
