Metropolitan Police (London)

Hi I am just wondering weather or not the percentage you get from day one may effect you later on down the line in the met? Today I recieved my results from day one for pcso: Overall 56% Respect for race and diversity 60% Oral communication 100% Written communication 83% The pass mark is 50% so I only passed by 6% so I was wondering weather or not this low overall score will come back to haunt me later on down the line if I get the opportunity to become a PC? Do they ever look back at previous day one results? Thanks.

Hi there, is there anyone currently completing there workbook to become special sergeants, which started ast year? 1. How are you finding the book? 2. Have you had any guidance on how to complete it? and if so where? 3. Has your MSC sergeants been helpful? 4. What type of things have you been doing for evidence? I am currently completing mine and I have had very little info on how they want the evidence recorded, I am hoping I am not the only one in this boat. Look forward to your replies..

Two officers dismissed quite rightly so. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2200539/Islington-Police-Station-Two-female-police-officers-sacked-following-gorilla-monkey-race-remarks.html

I heard on the grapevine today that the new owners of the old Bow Street Magistrates’ Court and Police Station buildings have offered the Met the use of the ground floor male police station cells for use as a Metropolitan Police Museum on a 99 year lease at a ‘peppercorn’ rent. The offer is apparently under consideration by the Met.

Going Maybe Unable

Not sure if anyone else has seen this, but the Met seem to have launched a community messaging system, so you can be contacted by local police about local initiatives/incidents, and also wider ones in the event of major incidients. Seems like a good idea to me, but I wonder how many people will actually sign up. http://www.neighbourhoodlink.met.police.uk/registration/

Hey everyone. I did my day 1 in july and I havent recieved any info about the results. All I got was an email on the 29th of aug saying that the "recruitment has been successful" and that I will be contacted towards the end of october. This is for the metropolitan pcso role btw. Anyone on the same boat or got any idea whats going on?

Im back after many months of non posting! Can someone please PM me the writing room password? ta

I'm looking to transfer into the MPS out of Essex. I have had it confirmed from your HR department that I am able to transfer with rank - so that's an immediate positive! I am currently on Response and Patrol here in Essex. I was wondering what the closest approximation of that would be in the MPS? We attend all Grade 1, 2, 3, and 4 jobs. Does anyone have any experience with working in the Newham area? I am most interested in Newham, but am open to other areas. OSU also sounds relatively interesting to me, however from what I understand this is being discontinued now? Can anyone clarify? Thanks in advance!

Evening all! After the long wait, I finally have my Day 2 tomorrow at Hendon, for the role of PCSO Although I'm only attending for documentation cos I've already passed the fitness and medical for Specials and a substance test. Hoooraaah! :D Is anybody else going? Thanks

Does any one have any Livescan training aids? Powerpoint slides, documents anything really... ? Cheers

Hi all after sitting on the side lines and reading this forum regullary for the past year or so while my application goes through the various stages for MSC I am finally about to start my training after the London school sports day . So thought I would say Hi finally. Been looking through lots of threads on uniform and in particullary boots and was wondering (as we were not mesured for uniform on day 2) if I should consider buying a pair of boots prior to starting training or should I wait until starting training to get some?. If I buy them in advance of training can i still claim the money back if I keep the invoice? And in the Met am I right in saying which boots y…

I have lost my pass when I was out and about. I have reported it using 101. What happens now?

Deary me, when I was at school it was a rubber, pencil and ruler. Sign of the times i guess.
