Pre-Police Programme

<< Back to all enrichment
INTRODUCING THIS EXCITING ENRICHMENT

The Pre-Police Programme is designed specifically for anyone with an interest in pursuing a career in the police. We work closely with Humberside Police for help and advise on how to thoroughly prepare for the application, physical test and interview. We will be looking to take part in visits to different stations as well as working collaboratively with Hull University to find out more specifics on the Professional Policing Degree as well as Police Degree Apprenticeships.  

There will be guest talks from the talent acquisition officers at Humberside Police as well as mock interview scenarios. The sessions will be structured based on a split of first and second years with a commitment of two sessions per term as well as bookable one to one support sessions for UCAS and application help.

HOW OFTEN DOES THIS ENRICHMENT TAKE PLACE?

We have a minimum of 2 sessions a term for the full cohort which will work on a flexible rota; with the addition of one to one support for applications and career advice.

WHAT WILL I GET OUT OF IT?

First hand support from serving police officers with tips on applications and next steps to better your chances for a future career in the force.

IS THERE A COST OR ANY REQUIRED RESOURCES?

This enrichment is free. Supplementary costs may occur for any trips planned or resources you desire from teacher recommendations throughout the year.

My experience at Wyke has been an overwhelming success. I thought that moving from a small school to a larger college would be a daunting experience yet it wasn’t at all. Everyone is so friendly and approachable. Flyers has provided me with so many useful skills and experiences which I will never forget.

The independence and opportunity to meet new people was why I chose to study my A Levels at the College. I enjoyed being able to complete an EPQ as it allowed me to research and write about a topic I found interesting.

I knew Wyke was the College I wanted to study at because I felt it had a much more mature and relaxed environment than other colleges. I knew I wanted to study Human, Social and Political Sciences at university and my teachers and Flyers mentor offered me additional support sessions to further develop my knowledge in these areas.

I was attracted to studying at Wyke because it offered me with many opportunities that would allow me to progress into Higher Education. Being a Flyer I have gained invaluable skills, experiences and support with my personal statement for university.
