I haven't heard of any such flying school. They might be a third party who will be sending you to some other school for training, probably outside India. Some good flying schools in India are listed under:
1. IGRUA Raebarelie
2. NFTI Gondia
3. Chimes Aviation, Sagar
4. NFC, Nagpur
5. BFC, Mumbai
6. Carver Aviation, Baramati
7. GMR Avaition Academy.
The minimum eligibility is class 12th with 50% marks in PCM.

Apart from IGRU-Raebarelie and NFTI-Gondia, all other flying schools take admission on direct entry basis. For pursuing CPL from IGRUA or NFTI, you will have to get through the entrance exam conducted by the institution. If you are interested in doing it from some other flying school than you can directly approach them for admission query. The minimum educational qualification required is class 12th with 50% in PCM.

If you belong to the reserved category like OBC/SC/ST then you can contact your community commission.

Hi, There is navigating officer on ships, not ship pilots. Your son will have to pursue merchant navy in order to become a part of the ship crew. There are two ways of becoming a navigating officer.
1. Through a 3-year degree course of B.Sc. In nautical Science and then get placed in a company. Many colleges and universities offer this course.
2. Another way is through a Diploma course which is called DNS (Diploma in Nautical Science). You must get sponsorship from a company for a job.

Student Pilot License (SPL) & Private Pilot License (PPL) are intermediate stages of Commercial Pilot License Training.
You will be issued an SPL by the flying club after some hours of ground classes and an internal exam. Thereafter, you shall become eligible to start flying training.
It's very simple logic, SPL, PPL and CPL.
You can skip PPL as in any case you are aspiring for a higher license, which will allow you more privileges than PPL.
For becoming a commercial pilot, there is a specific eligibility criteria, which you should first be aware of. This is decided on what subjects have you taken in class 12th. It requires 50% in PCM
