    Yes appointable and waiting for the call too. Any speculation on when calls may be out? None of us will be in before the end of June anyway.

    Yep same boat as most of you, was made appointable just before this all started, ~750ish so hoping to get the call as soon as they start up again.

    What are the rest of you up to during this lock down? Anybody's current job still have them working? I'm classed as essential worker still so I'm not stuck in the house all day thankfully, be straight from one essential service to another by the looks of things, although this new one is far more essential I'd say haha

    Good opportunity for a extra month or so to improve fitness anyway, anybody any idea what the fitness program is like during GV? Passed the PCA easily enough and do a fair amount of cardio and some kettlebell work but would like to be prepared for it.

    All the gyms across PSNI are all closed at the minute so fitness within the training college is on a back burner. Just keep up to speed with your cardio for now and you'll be fine

    Guys there is a squad going in shortly and another I think is still waiting in the wings. There was to be 3 weeks between them squads originally. Hopefully we will get a call in the next few weeks about a July squad as senior squads will move to another site from then to make room

    I think there is a start soon and another towards end of June.

    Calls for July are going out towards the end of May but it’s been suggested that July will largely be filled by deferrals from April too. There may be some space for noobs like us but you’d need a decent ML number.

    Beyond that there is no August intake, next intake being end of September.

    51 firm positions and 5 reserve every intake

    I know there’s July, September and November confirmed so we can assume January would be next and so on

    They’ve reduced the courses running from 6 to 3

    4 months or so seems like an eternity now but looking back I got my progression email/vetting forms 5 months ago which seems like nothing.

    Prepare yourselves for more waiting, numbers are vastly reduced atm, using extra campus to facilitate senior squads but only 2 permitted in gville which looks unlikely to change in the near future, once numbers go back up can’t see extra facility being used as their wouldnt be enough staff to cover both. Also, despite gyms being closed i would advise you stay on top of training, sessions are tight as frig!! Good luck and well done to you all for getting this far!

    So do you automatically become appointable once everything is passed? Like ive got my medical and vetting now done as well so is that it, will my next contact from them be a starting date?

    Yes if you have passed all 5 stages then you are appointable, you won't get an email to say you're appointable. Next step is just waiting on that call, what is your ML bracket?

    Very hard to say when you’ll get a call. I’m sub 430 on the ML and they told me it could be a couple of months yet.
