Joint Hours building? Unheard of?

Ok so, having researched all options im currently completing my NPPL, and by this time next year (maybe a little later) ill be ready to start my hours building, of which i will need 150 hours PIC of a type, to become an instructor at such time as i wish to train.

My question is that, at the hours building school i wish to complete my hours building at (NCB -A) allows you to have more than the one person in with you while building your hours.
So, is there any reason, why i could not pair with another wannabe pilot for 8 - 10 weeks... and take turns in piloting and co piloting.... so that we both gain 300 hours overall time, toward unfreezing our ATPL's, but also that 150 hours (or 100 or 50 in some cases) PIC, which for me enables better chances of employment (maybe) and also more hours. But more importantly double the hours, same price?)

I havnt seen this going on... and im sure someone will point out something that is soo apprent, ive looked over the fact...?

All the best
