groundschool at different schools?

Hi

I am considering studying for my ATPL exams next year. At the moment i have a full time job but next year sometime i am hoping to take a 1 year leave of abscence to train (and travel a bit). So i was thinking about starting some of the ATPL modules whilst still working full time. eg maybe study for 5-6 months before beginning the leave of absence. Then once free i will continue with the rest of the modules full time. That way i should only use up 3-4 months of my gap year studying and the rest can be flying and travelling.

i live in exeter and i think bournmouth is my closest groundschool offering fulltime courses.

Do Bournmouth offer partime correspondant courses??
If not then i would have to purchase some of the modules from Bristol groundschool and then switch to Bournmouth when i go fulltime.
Is this a reasonable thing to do or do you think that the courses would be too different and difficult to swop between??

Will any prospective employer care that i did them at 2 different schools, or are they just interested in the results??

Has anyone else ever done this??

Thanks for your help.
