1) Small friendly and professional outfit. The school is on the airfield which allows views of aeroplanes which can keep your spirits up.
2)The instructors are as good as anywhere. Pete Lines, Pete Quinlan, Lucy Pesaro and Mike Burton are very very experienced instructors. They will take the time to explain the things you dont understand, and keep you interested with the odd war story...
3)B&B accom: there are some families and older couples who rent rooms out in Finham and Bagington. You can expect to pay about 10-15 quid per night. Coventry is a good place to study as the night life is pretty dire.
