Short answer: YES!
But it's all about the instructor rather than the school. Of course some schools make it more likely that you'll have a good instructor than others do. A "puppy mill" where your instructor has 250.2 hours is more or less bound to be unsatisfactory (unless you get very lucky). My three main instructors (PPL-ASEL & IR, aerobatics, PPL-H respectively) have each had around 10,000hours and lots of instructing experience, and were (and are still) a delight to fly with and learn from, though plenty strict when necessary.
Otoh I have had one experienced instructor who was hopeless (my first tailwheel instructor), one fairly low-time instructor who I liked a lot and who was very good (but he is also a PhD in aero engineering), and several instructors for odds and ends over the years who were just about OK but no more than that.
So really it's about maximizing the chances of finding an instructor who you can work well with, and then finding the right person.
