Stapleford Ground School ATPL
Have just finished my PPL and want to go on to do my ATPL, I've been looking at groundschools and most of them are distant learning I've heard great things about Bristol on here.
My question is has anyone had any experience with Stapleford Ground School for their ATPLs?

Stapleford isn't my closest airport I'd be moving to commence training.
I would do but I don't like distance learning, I find I learn better in an environment with other people and someone teaching the subject.
I was thinking of doing the full time ground school and fit some hour building in on some weekends, After we finish the ATPL theory my plan was to do structured hour building where I practice my nav skills, get better at flying not just randomly burn holes in the sky.

Hi, I am also deciding what ground school I should go to and found myself in a similar situation to yourself... Deciding between Bristol (Not Local) and Stapleford (Local). My plan is to do everything (excluding ATPL's) at Stapleford and my ATPL Studies at Bristol Distance Learning... My only concerns are the same as yours... Would I be able to study at home rather than at a school etc.... Some food for thought I guess...

Hi wickedkick, I have first hand experience of SFC ground school and er its not a good one.
If u have to go full time its the big 2 really which are much more expensive but best to do to nail it in the shortest time possible. U might save a few k with the likes of SFC and others but it will take u quite a months more so its not really worth it.

have you not looked at CAE Oxford for ground school/ CTC ground school / FTA Bournemouth/ ? i am pretty sure that the teaching at CAE is better than Stapleford overall but it all does come down to individual learning as well after the lessons... also correct me if i am wrong but a name like CAE Oxford would look far better than Stapleford on your cv...

Drop them an email and organise a visit.
Avoid CTC. They put business success over student success.
