South Yorkshire Police

Hi All, I am new to this forum and since leaving the army im wanting to become a SC i am attending a presentation evening on the 24th Jan, I know this is just the first step but im wanting help and advice on the best way for me to succeed. Thanks

Well folks, Ive decided that this will be my final year in the SC, come summer I will be hanging my helmet up for the last time. Ive had a good 10 years but the way things are changing I'm finding its not for me anymore, far to full-on for me. I joined to assist the full time officers but these days its more of a full time officers job. I'll let admin know on here when I leave so the profile details can be changed.

Good Luck for the exam today.

Evening I am not sure if this has been asked before, but if it has I can't find it .. Can SYP SC's/PC's travel on warrant cards? I am sure one my old cadet mangers told me that they can but only on First Busses. Amz-0

A happy and safe 2013 to you all! Good luck to all new applicants and newly appointed SC's.

Well Ladies and Gents, Have a great Xmas and stay safe if on shift over this period. Been a busy and challenging year for us all. Looking forward to new colleagues at district in the New Year and supporting our community even more. Take care all and best wishes to your families. Without their support we don't remain focused on shift. Paul

Hi guys and girls. Went to lifewise yesterday and what an experience that was, really good fun. How did you all feel about it . Not long now till we get attested and go out on mod 2, cont wait

So..as the title says. I needed 55% but only got 53%. Today hasn't been a good day, at all. I hope everyone else got great results and all the best of luck to you! CR.

Hi all, So whats do you think of the new Astra's??? i was told that they are only 1200cc CDTi ...surely they aren't? Anyone got any pics?

Hey guys! I wrote a post quite a while back about being on the waiting list for the SYP PCSO's Unfortunately, after ringing up HR they told me that the successful applicants who are on the list such as myself would likely not progress any further due to funding issues !!! I was also told that come may, i would be taken off the list and would have to apply all over again :'( !!! The HR member said there was a chance SYP police would get funding before then and i would be placed on a course, but not to set my hopes on this as it is very unlikely. As you can imagine i am extremely disappointed. On the SYP website, on the PSCO recruitment section it says this - "South…

Hi All, I thought I would create this thread for all new recruits starting with SYP this year. My aim is to arrange meet ups with each other, in order to help each other out and get to know each other a bit more. No doubt I will meet most of you when I start in Aug / Oct, however I'm sure there are other recruits who will have started before and after myself. Hope to meet with you all soon! Tom :biggrin:

Just having a break at the office looking through some of the older posts, it seems that people will post less and less on this part of the forum after they become atested, is this because the move on into the duty room or just fade away, leave the service, or do not complete the training or other :new_shades: questions on a post card folks :new_eyebrow:

Good evening, Got my assessment centre results this morning and surprisingly I have passed with 66% overall and 68% Race and Diversity so I am very pleased with that. Just hope vetting and medical goes smoothly now. Good luck to those who are applying again! and well done to those who passed!

Bonjour, I have finally decided to apply for SYP Specials :new_hmmm: I have had the application form now for over a year but was stuck on the R&D question until it clicked and I got half decent answer !!!!!! :new_sweat: Right I also managed to get hold of the electronic version of the application would I be able to complete all my details typed up then print it out and hand write the CBQ ?? thanks ameur

Hi all I was at the assessment centre on the 3rd of this month and fingers crossed I hope I pass everything. If so, does anyone know how long the vetting period is and do they send something for you to fill in before they begin the process? Such as additional information and things? Any advice much appreciated!
