That's tue Ixixly, some smaller schools don't want to invest all that money and do bulk training with all the problems that brings. It didn't seem to do much good in the longer term to those who did do it...I wouldn't call bankruptcy an advantage. I'm still standing but there are schools here that did it that are now a distant memory and that didn't do anyone in the industry any good, particularly their hard working staff. Not all students want to or can do it that way either.
If the government wants to subsidise flying training then it should be available to all schools and students alike, whatever their circumstances. And it shouldn't be in the form of big wads of cash but say something like a fuel subsidy, or perhaps the feds could do something about the people who got the airport leases sending costs through the roof.
