How large is large enough? I guess that the answer lies within the business model of the specific school and the willingness to change it for survival sake. They can't offer any course below break-even price as this is a quick way into the ground. If it turns out that the close-to-break-even crisis survival price is still a lot higher than the average across the board, the only solution is to reduce the cost base. How? By cutting expenditure for facilities, aircraft, staff, advertising, by renegotiating arrangements with suppliers and so on. A lot can be trimmed off the cost base of such a school - but, if it's actually done, it will become just another one of the many. A bit of a Catch 22, isn't it?
