6 months for ground school. Can’t think of a single school where it takes any longer than that if it’s full time. The requirements are for 650 hours of learning time, of which 10% must be contact (BGS have the details and they know what they’re talking about). Certainly not a year and a half of solid learning without a week off, that’d be a ridiculous waste of time effort and money. To OP, if you need 1400 hours just for groundschool then this probably isn’t the job for you I’m afraid.
