I've seen a lot of flying schools come and go and the reasons are usually the same. Being nice and having loyal customers isn't always enough.

If a casual instructor is told they must set, supervise and mark an exam but not get paid a cent then they have a right to grumble.
Absolutely, but perhaps it also depends on the volume of training and time management?
In my case, instructor (also casual) had 2 students that day. There was plenty of time between our sessions to administer tests.
