Advice on flying school

Hi all

I am a part-finished PPL with 37hrs but haven't been able to fly for two years.

I'm now in a position to recommence training to complete my PPL.
It is looking practical to train at either Derby Aero club - at Derby airfield OR Donair at East Midlands airport.

My question is - which school do people think would provide the better training environment?

Derby is a small grass strip whereas East Midlands is clearly a huge airport. Would the professional ATC/taxiing/being around the biggies at EM outweigh the potential challenge of flying from a grass strip?

I'd just like some thoughts from others' experiences. Many thanks.
