Wow, I’m looking to become a police officer but have a grade 4/3 in science and I don’t know if that would be accepted. I also wanted to ask about work experience. What would you recommend best as work experience?
@@sania_rastihka3522I think you also would need to live for at least a couple of years in the UK to be able to join and as for language I’m sure that as long as your able to have a fluent conversation you would be fine however I think you do need excellent communication skills as it is a big part of the job.
Qualification requirements can vary depending on the Force you are applying to and the entry route you apply. Check out this page for more information: police-recruitment.co.uk/eligibility-and-medical/
This might be a bit too late to comment, hopefully I will get a response back with a thorough explanation. I am born & raised in Oslo, Norway. I have a Norwegian citizen ship (EEA, not EU). How do I proceed with moving to the UK (London) and to meet the requirements and qualifications. If you have any RUclips videos where you proceed to explain more in depth about foreigners who would love to be a police officer in the UK, when they do not have a UK citizen ship, nor yet to achieve a living status in the UK and how to obtain it possibly. - Sincerely

Hello my names James from Leicester. So what areas of policing exist in this country , I can apply for ?? The person I do liked on here said what area . Any good answers please .
Whilst there is no upper age limit, the average retirement age for a constable is 60 years old and it is important to note that new recruits must complete a two-year probation period.
Qualification requirements can vary depending on the Force you are applying to and the entry route you apply via. There are several entry routes to joining one of the 43 polices forces in England and Wales. Direct application - if you are applying directly to your chosen police force you will typically need either two A-levels, an equivalent level 3 qualification, or experience from a similar field such as the Armed Forces. Usually, the qualification requirements will be available on the website of the force. Apprenticeship - applicants who do not hold a degree can apply via the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship scheme if this is available from the force you are applying to. This is a three-year degree apprenticeship which involves education as well as working in the field. To be eligible for the PCDA scheme applicants must have passed GCSE English language with a grade of C/4 and above. Degree-Holder Programme - applicants who hold a degree (in any subject) are eligible to apply for a two-year training programme which, upon completion, awards a graduate diploma in professional policing and also opens further options into specialist routes such as investigation which can, in turn, lead to a detective constable role. For more information I recommend you check out: police-recruitment.co.uk/eligibility-and-medical/ I hope this helps :)
I don’t think I have enough UCAS points even though I have completed 2 apprenticeships. I work full time so does anyone know a way of getting UCAS points on the side?
In the UK you can apply for a police constable role at 17 years old. However, you must be 18 years old at the time you are appointed.

Hi James! Being a police officer can be challenging, but with proper training and teamwork, you'll learn how to stay safe in difficult situations. It’s a rewarding career if you’re passionate about helping others and making a difference. Have you thought about which aspect of policing interests you most? 😎
5 at C and above, it would be good to do a constable degree apprenticeship when you're 18 and then you'll be all set. Alternatively, you can use any degree to become an officer and get training from there.
Hi, if I want to do the police constable degree apprenticeship do I need to have 64 UCAS points to apply or do I just need to pass English language? Some sites say you need the ucas points and the English language? I’m so confused.
