Hi Shaun,
Did my PPL FAA at OFT and went to Naples Air Center for my CPL-IR-ME.
I don't recommend OFT and Ormond B.A. Bad reputation too.
I strongly recommend NAC. All the mates I had during my stay there got their JAA PPL easily as instruction was good and there are enough planes. Very structurised school. Very British too.
Good luck,
