Re: Moving Abroad 19 year old
Good luck D26
What are those results from? doesn't look like standard GCSE results/A-Level's?
Have you tried scoring yourself on the points system? if yes, how did you score?
Also, I assume you have been to Canada before? if not you should visit it at a minimum!

Re: Moving Abroad 19 year old
If you are seriously considering a police career in Canada, you may want to gain some life/work experience first, not to mention additional schooling. Not sure on the UK but here police recrutiers focus heavily on life experience, community involvement, work experience and education - some police forces require some post secondary eduction.
I do recommend policing as a career and I also give the thumbs up for Canada - but I would recommend visiting first - its not for everyone.
If Canada is your bag (have you even been here?) then I would deal with the move here first, get settled and then pursue a policing career if that's what you want.
Good luck

But, surely, such applicants would need to be able to work legally in Canada? I can't imagine the CPS accepting such an applicant on the basis of BUNAC. I may be wrong

I agree there is no way Bunac is going to do it.

police medics are things in public order situations. they have to do a 3 week course just to help people that are injured.
its mainly for football or protests that they are deployed

Re: Moving Abroad 19 year old
That's funny - what the hell is a police medic? Never heard of one of them before, but then again, I'm not tactically trained for riot duties - to much rah, rah, rah for me. I've also wondered why police in the uk walk around in those silly florescent jackets, we only wear them here for traffic duties for safety reasons, otherwise they sure makes you a great target going to a shooting call where you need to be as covert as possible.
(apologies to the OP for OT posts)
