They give JAR Training too.
I've no idea if the school likair mentioned is a JAA school or not, - please don't read this as aimed at any school - this is just a general 'for info' comment on adverts you see with JAA phrases in them:

Sometimes students get confused by wording in adverts (wonder why?). Schools sometime offer 'the JAA CPL pre-module' or some similar phrase. It means cheap hours building either just fun or structured, to get the pilot to the 150 hours which is the usual pre-req for a JAA-CPL flight course (with someone else) using the modular route to a CPL. Nothing wrong with that - it's quick and not expensive, but it doesn't mean the school is JAA approved - it doesn't have to be just to get your hours up. It would even mean a SA ppl on the way if you didn't have a PPL to start with. See
UK SA Flyer Community FAQ - number 9.
