BSM were always considered to be the best. They taught their own drivers and many driving school owners were trained by them. If you have a school near you, you could ask them for details. http://www.bsm.co.uk/instructor-centre/bsm-instructor-training/train-and-qualify-to-be-a-driving-instructor-with-bsm.htm Most driving instructors are self employed with their own cars. There is no league table for you to check if they get a good pass rate or how long it takes for a pupil to get through the test. Asking round, is the best way to find out. See who has recently passed and who taught them. As for costs, that could be a false guide. Some one who charges £15 you may need 30 lessons to get through the test £450. Some one who charges £20 might get you through in 10 lessons costing £200 which is less than half. These days there will not be a lot of difference between the prices instructors charge so may be it is as well to see the sort of cars they use for teaching. If you are above or below average height that could make a lot of difference to how you adjust the seat and mirrors. Take a look at the site below and see if it helps too. http://www.ukadi.co.uk/2008/12/guaranteed-driving-test-pass.html
