Totally agree with this.

It should not really be a problem to fly with different instructors if the school is well organized. After all there is a syllabus that they are following.

The OP does not indicate how often they book a lesson. Playing devils advocate - if you look to the school like an intermittent or unreliable student then they will treat you as such , and you won't get good instructors assigned to you. Demonstrate commitment and demand good service and you will get it, without necessarily changing schools.
