bose-x/BEagle,
Similar advice contained on the FAQ page of the NPPL website was updated early this year following a change in CAA policy.
Q Can I elect to change, during the course, from the NPPL SSEA course to an EASA LAPL(A) or EASA PPL(A) course?
A Following discussion with other Member States, CAA have confirmed that it is not possible to change course to an EASA LAPL or PPL and obtain credit for training from an incomplete NPPL course.
