local shops, local newspaper, yellow pages, thomson directories, universities, colleges etc

Gumtree as well.

Don't just ring people turn up on their doorstep with a flyer/card for them to display

Supermarket notice boards? Maybe an ad telling people they don't need to take a taxi home with their shopping if they learn to drive their own car.

Schools with 6th forms, especially in middle class areas.
Most youngsters in this area start their lessons in the last year of school.
Maybe do a discount for school pupils. You can't advertise in the school but you can have the car parked outside at going home time with flyers or an ad in the window.
In fact any time the car is not being used for lessons have it parked in a supermarket car park or similar with a big advert in it.

Hi, have you googled, advertise online free, play around with the words & you'll get loads of free sites. Maybe your husband could offer driving lessons in exchange for a website, & start a blog' I'm sure that the life of a driving instuctor could be both funny & informative to read.
Hope all goes well for him

Hello, Congratulations on your new driving school.

Since you have already ask your local colleges, it would also be good to post ads on your local newspapers and yellowpages as well and also put up some listings online. It would also be advisable to set up a website for your new business. Because most of the time, people would look up on the internet some available driving schools in their community.
