Seadog,

Is Bristol really good?? I have a friend whos doing his IR there soon and was considering doing mine there too.

However at the mo' I need to worry about the writtens. I've heard good and bad things about most of the schools, so how big are the classes at Bristol and what are the instructors like??

I am not at any groundschool as yet, but have done a little rooting around. All the ones you have mentioned are reputable (please, no harsh replies, I am only trying to help!).
But, my choice will be either London Guildhall University or ATA.
I did look at the highly recommended Bristol, but they don't do a full-time course which is what I want to do.
Best advice has to be visit as many as you can on your shortlist, then collar a student and ask them how their treated. I believe this is pretty universal advice>
Best of luck!!!

Every groundschool place generally gets glowing reports. There are a few people who've had bad experiences but on the whole, you can't go wrong with any of them. Having said that, Bristol does just seem to get slightly better recommendations.
