Question

I am currently training for my PPl in Cessna 152. From what I have read so far I understand that I could train for an NPPL using the same aircraft. What I don't understand is that I can learn flying in the same aircraft but depending on the licence type it can take 10-15 hours less. Considered that with a PPL one only learns the necessary basics to fly safely under VFR does this mean NPPL pilots will be send out on their own with substantial knowledge gaps and less well trained or have I missed something?
