WHAT IS THE POLICE OFFICER WRITTEN EXERCISE?
During the police online assessment stage 3 you will undertake the role of a PC (police constable), where you are required to complete an urgent written task for your direct manager.
This task is likely to focus on an issue in the community.
You will be provided four sets of information (such as, potentially, a letter or email from a member of the public) that you can use to help form your written report.
You are required to type the written exercise on your device in your web browser.
HOW LONG IS THE WRITTEN EXERCISE (STAGE 3A) OF THE POLICE OFFICER ONLINE ASSESSMENT?
The total test time will last approximately 40 minutes.
HOW WILL I BE ASSESSED ON THE POLICE OFFICER WRITTEN EXERCISE?
Candidates will be assessed against the following competencies and values during the written exercise: “Impartiality”, “Analyse critically”, “Deliver, support, & inspire”, “Collaborative”, and “Taking ownership”.

I can personally say that the information provided in these tutorials is brilliant in securing a successful pass in this part of the application process. I attended a day one assessment shortly before lockdown last year. I was lucky to be able to attend a day one class with one of your well known tutors and the guidance he gives is very good and helpful. I secured a pass at the day one assessment centre.
Very helpful video! I stumbled across this link after many 'pay to view' links, or where you only get a snippet of information before having to pay to reveal the full content, this has been very helpful! Thank you Richard!
Glad it was helpful!

Read through your book to help me pass the Royal Marines assessment process and was very successful and made it to training. After issues at home I had to leave training and am now looking to pass these police assessments later today. Your content has provided a much clearer understanding of these tests than I have been supplied with. Hopefully I can be guided to success once again thanks to your help.
9 months later. How'd it go? Im doing mine this week
@@alexparsons2549 got accepted to two forces, joined up and passed out of training school last Friday. So worked out well 👌🏻😂
@@jacklewis1850 you sound like a knob, don't believe a word of it
I can personally say that this guidance is what you need to study in order to pass. I did the old day one assessment shortly before the changes last year. This is very similar to the test I undertook. I personally attended a one day course with one of your well known tutors and he is spot on in the guidance he provides. I’m pleased to say I passed my assessment second time round last year thanks to the information and guidance given on the course.
I failed my assessments. Don't know which one of the three (briefing, written, or situational), they didn't even give me a specific reason why I "failed". The pcda application us a very slow, drawn out process. It took me 2 months just to get this far, just to be told "thanks but no thanks". Won't even give me a chance
Where did you do this one day course please?
@@kjr2577 In Kent through this company!
I am awaiting my invitation from the College of Policing for the online assessment, having made it through the first stage. I am so happy to have your insight and advice freely available to those currently in the application process. This has helped ease my nerves greatly! Thank you! (Now lets hope I get through!)
Best of luck! Thank you for your kind words. Don't forget to view my blog which contains additional info on the Online Assessment, like the Briefing Exercise: www.how2become.com/blog/police-online-assessment-process-exercise-4-stage-3b/

did you get through?
how did it go im also with College of Policing and absolutely bricking it
I would very much like to see some actual police officers, especially those who have been 'serving' in the Force for a number of years, undergo this whole selection process just to see how well they can perform.
I've just been informed that I have failed my assessments in my pcda application. In the entire recruitment process I haven't met a single human being face-to-face. Could be a domino effect from coronavirus. But I feel that I haven't been given the opportunity to properly show who I am and how much I want to do this. I don't know what to do with myself now
@@mredmond8393 I am about to do my assessments this week, I find it all very overwhelming with it all being online!
Do you know what you failed on? Do they give you feedback after the process is complete?
@@SuzieShone I am also currently doing my assessment, deadline tonight and midnight and it has been so daunting not being able to speak to anyone or anything
@@kroomes9 yes I agree! Which force have you applied for? :) also! Let me know how easy or difficult it was! ☺️ I’m really worried about the written exercise most of all.
@@SuzieShone I've applied for West Yorkshire DC role, and in my opinion, the written test was the easy one as you had all the information given to you and only had to write about that, but the briefing...they gave you a vague description of an issue and asked you probing questions and replying to that on video was again daunting, I wish you luck, let me know how you get on 😁
Thank you Richard for the tip. Have a great day too
You too thanks

There is a detail about Mrs Smith sending the compaint the 10th May where she compaint about the last *4 weeks* (but the Operation Beefeater started only the 1st May).
Thank you
Hi Richard, Im a bit confused about the dates in this exercise, the Complaint letter is dated 10th May and the incident report is from the 12th May. I have constructed my answer based on the incident taking place 2 days after the mothers complaint letter, however your response is based on the incident being the one the mother is talking about in her complaint.
As we are being marked on analysing critically I have gone with the exact dates specified, and answered assuming the incident was at least the second time her son has been stopped and searched. can you please advise.
Thank you for all of your brilliant videos Richard, I have passed the assessment centre and force interview!
That's excellent to hear! We're the 3a and 3b excersises what you expected!?
@@26CW128Jake yes very straightforward, I structured answers in the same way as in the videos.
Hi, do you know long it took for them to get back to you with your results??
@@jesmondenebotha5145 a month or 2, very very slow!!
@@melissabuckland7737 thank you
is this a typo or something that should be made note of in the answer when actually answering the actual test if this happens:
-that Mrs smith sent the letter 2 days prior to her son being stopped and searched? as her letter was sent on the 10th may and the son was stopped and searched on the 12 may
-another one she said 4 weeks in her letter but it was only dated 10th may as the operations started on the 1st may as said in the email from sargent walker?
Absolutely marvelous
THANK YOU!

Hi, thanks for the helpful video. Do you know if there is a word count for the written assessment? Thanks!
Great video. After watching this I am feeling more confident now for the written assessment. Thanks a lot
AWESOME

Thank you very much for this video!!! I used the same structure in the video and passed the online assessment😁
Great job!
Please would you SUBSCRIBE to my channel? I'd very much appreciate your support. Thank you! Richard 🙏
Would you lay the letter out the same way with her points in bold and your response to each point in normal text? Also are you penalised for using less than the words required?
I failed the assessment last time. I mostly think it was down to my written, I wish I had seen this video before I did my assessment in August because you have made this easier than what I thought it was!
Sorry to hear that! Did they give you feedback on what you did right and wrong?
@@danielobeirne9386 I know I'm not the original comment poster. But they didn't give me a specific reason why I failed my assessments. Don't even know which one 2, 3a, or 3b. My guessing is I didn't tell them exactly what they wanted to hear according to the competencies and values framework. I'm beside myself. This is the only thing I have qualifications in that I studied.
@@mredmond8393 Try again in 3 month pal. Learn from your mistakes. More research. You got this 👌
@@connel09 thank you mate, I appreciate it 😃. But I thought I had to wait 6 months before I can apply to a force again atleast according to the Home Office. Are you trying to become a pc too?
@@mredmond8393 It is 3 months for the same force but you can only have two attempts in a year. Yes I am applying for GMP. Just passed the National Sift. Been told I will be sent all 3 links for the the Online assessment end of June. Joined as a special in March for a bit of a heads up on it all.
Good video. Thanks
Glad you liked it!

Hi. Can you please make one for Prison Officer written assessment.
Hey great video. Are you releasing one about the briefing exercise?
This would be great!
Is it the same as a written report for the Border Force officer job? Or What to expect for a written assessment for the role?
Thank you
You're welcome... Please would you subscribe to my channel? I'd appreciate the support :) Thanks!
Hi Richard can you make a video about the Briefing exercise (stage 4)?
Sure, can you contact my team here www.how2become.com/contact-us/ and they will be able to give you advice.
Is this a real question from a written exercise. Only thing is that all the dates our wrong. Foot patrols were increased from the 1st May as part of the operation, Mrs Smiths Letter is dated 10th of may and she feels like police have changed over the last 4 weeks? And lastly, she mentions the stop and search of her son in her letter, which according to the PC who conducted it didn't take place until the 12th?
Great vid, just a question, will they expect me to quote the information given and provide the statistics or can we simply just explain them? for example, will i have to mentioned the crimes have come down from 301 and specifically quote the numbers/statistics
Thanks!
THANK YOU! www.how2become.com/careers/police-officer/
Here is my response, i tried writing it before watching the example answer was gone through above in the video
Dear Mrs Shirley Smith,
I am very sorry that you are unhappy and feel intimidated by the amount of police officers present in the local area, and the way you feel your son has been treated.
As you were aware by your letter we sent out news letters telling you about operation beefeater which is to reduce the amount of physical violence within North Fickshire. In your letter you said you were upest by the fact you were unable to give feedback about your views towards this, we did in fact hold a council meeting in which every shop owner was invited to on the 4th may. This was a really positive meeting as it gave shop owners a chance to give their views and ideas to implement to help with operation beefeater. Since receiving feedback from this nearly all feedback was positive, and they were happy their ideas had actually been implemented.
The point you made about feeling intimidated and like the area was a warzone, which has reduced customers to your shop I will have to disagree. This is because customers and shop owners reviews have nearly all been positive saying that they feel more secure and how business is booming. These comments have also been made around the area by your store where shop owners have had there sales increase massively. Also linking back to your point saying that you feel intimidated by how many police officers are walking around in uniform the hole time. The idea beihind operation beefeater is to reduce physical violence within the area, so we felt having more officers walking around would be seen as a deterrent for offenders and something safe for innocent members of the public, so I am very sorry you have felt this way.
The statistics that i can tell you that have been a clear example that operation beefeater is working is that in January the overall number of crimes was 76 and 40 % of that was physical violence. Then in Feburary the overall number of crimes had in creased to 136 and by the time we had reached April the overall number of crimes were 311 where 60% of that was physical violence and another 10% was Aggrivated assult. Since starting this operation our statistics are dwon to 102 crimes overall with only 20% of them being physical violence. This shows a clear decrease in the numbers since we started and also the lowest percentage of physical violence within the year. This means if we keep at it and then hopefully this will decrease more making North Fickshire have even less physical violent crimes.
In relation to your son, Ben Smith, you said that you believed that it was an unprovoked, forced and humaliting stop and search which has left him tramatised. I am sorry that you have felt this way due to this, but unfortunately i do not believe that you understand what happened on the day. Looking at the report from this incident which happened on the 12th May, your son and another boy was on the floor punching each other, which was leaving one bleeding heavily. As my colleges got the two boys apart from each other, your son Mr Smith began swearing, unfortunately this isnt the first time that we have encourntaed with your son. The way he was acting and because they were causing physical violence to one another which is part of operation beefeater, we felt it warrant to do a stop and search. At this point Mr Smith refused to do so completely until there were threats to be arrested to which point he complied and nothing was found.
I hope that this has given you a understanding now of what is happening in the local area of North Fickshire, feel free to write back to me with any questions if there is anything else you are concerned about.
Many Thanks,
PC Briggs
That was nice! Your response was better then the video
@@f.aumavae258 thank you, I passed my OAC
Hi, I’m doing my online assessment in just over a week and was following this video to help. However in my workshop I was told a few different pieces of information to what you have said, so will the rest of this video still be helpful, or have they changed the assessment since? For example I was told I had 2 hours to complete this task, but it should only take me 40 mins and that spelling & grammar would not be assessed.
Yes, you are right on those things, but look at it this way. If you and another candidate scored the same, but the other candidate's spelling and grammar was better than yours, who do you think they are more likely to choose to fill the position? This is why it does indeed matter, even if it doesn't form part of their scoring criteria. I hope that helps! 😊
@@CareerVidz I completely agree, I was only checking that all the rest of the information / advice was still relevant for the assessment now, as the criteria seems to have changed slightly. Thank you!
What's the best book to prepare it ? I need to book my slot for assessment for PCSO which includes interview, written exercise and role play. Could you suggest something please?
OK www.how2become.com/careers/police-officer/
Please would you SUBSCRIBE to my channel? I'd very much appreciate your support. Thank you! Richard 🙏
hey do you have a link for the briefing exercising?
Sure: www.how2become.com/blog/police-online-assessment-process-exercise-4-stage-3b/
Hi, Is there a difference to the way you respond whether its a report or a response?
No, it isn't important in this context. Keep the content concise 😊
Is it always an email for the written assessment or can they ask for a something else e.g. a letter, police report ?
Could be letter or report :)
is the written exercise still the same in 2024?
Do you know if this is the same format? I have a this test to do in the next 7 days thankyou
The video should certainly be helpful! Please do let me know how you get on! :)
Does anybody know what the scenario GMP are giving on the written test.
Did you manage to find out
I recently passed GMP online assessment tests, have my interview booked, I find the best way is to go straight in and deal with what’s in-front of you. I had to formalise myself with the new structure as it’s been 14 years since I was a Special Constable. However, it would be unethical should I divulge aspects of what scenarios occurred, all the best.
@@martinjakemckinnon5666 Thanks but 4 months to late pal 🤣 Iv passed everything now and start training at the end of the month..
@@connel09you open to sharing what questions you got?
Is this relevant to every police constabulary?
All home office forces, I think forces such as York Minster, CNC, and MDP may have their own routes.
Can u plz do a prisoner officer writing skills.
Sure: ruclips.net/video/ZmuCOqsq0_Q/видео.html
You're wrong In the official documentation from college of Policing they clearly state that punctuation and grammar will not be assessed.The wording is similar to:We are aware that some candidates might use grammar/spell check software and to create a equal environment for all candidates we are not going to asses that.
Otherwise good info, I'm following your videos for some time.
Thanks for the feedback.
@@CareerVidz Maybe update your advices?
If applying for the police constable degree apprenticeship (pcda) I take it this will be the same process of recruiting?
Hi, could you post your question on the blog on the following page (at the bottom) and my team will answer this for you: www.how2become.com/blog/new-police-online-assessment-process-2020/
Yes, it’s the same process as I’m currently doing the as we speak. The only difference is the PCDA is 2 years and None degree holder is 3 years.
If I run out of time before finishing the report, would it affect my chances of passing?
Yes, you are expected to complete the report. From feedback from candidates, you should have plenty of time to do this. Make sure you get plenty of practice in these exercise questions beforehand and you'll be fine 😊
Thank you!
Detective constable vs police constable. Pros and cons?
Detective is more involved in solving complex and serious crime, whereas a police constable is more day-to-day duties. Detective is more focused on several cases whereas police is more genarlised. I would personally go for detective. More info here:

I just done my written assessment , i done the writing , my time ran out before I press submit. Have I failed this assessment ?
If you weren't able to submit the assessment in time, then you may well have failed unfortunately. Were you able to submit it at all, even after the time? You should get a response via email shortly that will inform you.
@@CareerVidz just to let you know I have passed my assessment and starting in March, thank you for your advice and guidance :)
@@PS-rk5iv Was it still an email for the written assessment or did they ask for a something else e.g. a letter?
@@sambrett2162 the context was very similar to this video :)
@@PS-rk5iv Thank you! And when they say for the competency based interview it marks you on integrity, public service and transparency for values , then taking ownership and innovative + open minded for competencies are they correct?? I got this info from another vid btw :)
I'm guessing the pass mark is very low.
No, I don't believe it is.
Think I've failed this section. Came across this video too late. I was to the point and stuck to the facts but what I wrote was very short in length.
Best of luck! Please do let me know how you get on :)
Do u know why people don’t like the police
I don’t... enlighten me?
Me too?
Richard McMunn I love them it’s just that people don’t like them they work hard for us
You have two hours...
Thanks
