Question PPL training Stapleford Vs Cabair (Biggin Hill)

Been deciding between the 2 to get my PPL, Cabair is obviously more expensive since landing fees are very steep at Biggin Hill.
Has anyone had experience with either school (or location) in terms of the Ground School lectures, the condition of the planes, level of instruction?
Which school/location would give a better foundation for a start on the modular commercial route?
Would training at Biggin Hill be more of an advantage due to it being a commercial airport compared to Stapleford?
Also, would it be more useful to do a PPL in a PA28 if your plans are to go commercially or would a C152 suffice?
Alot of Qs I know, but I really have to watch the pennies and need the best start as I was going to go to Jerez or Oxford on integrated but due to £££ I need to be more careful.
Thanks in advance
