Vie,
If you're not planning on employing abinitio crews then there is no need for a school at all. Pilots will require some previous SAR experience and will be given type conversions as required. Rear crew the same. In the unlikely event that some basic SAR training is required then it can either be provided at the location or, more likely, out sourced to a commercial trainer. Moreover once sufficient crews are employed and trained what role would there be for any dedicated school?
The CAA will simply ensure that the providers SAR AOC defines minimum training requirements and/or experience levels. Have a read of CAP 999 for more info.
