Police Leadership Programme (Stage 5) Executive Leaders
In August 2022 a programme review was undertaken to provide an update of work being carried out by the Leadership and Talent Team for the SPNAC/SCC candidates. The paper provided an update on the SPNAC Development Programme, the format of the programme, potential challenges identified and amendments for the upcoming cohort. The paper discussed recommendations for the design/development the programme.
2.8.2 Key themes outlined included:
Talent Management- developing talent through the organisation with a robust approach to Talent Management, linking to our other programmes and starting far earlier than previously.
MyCareer and the CVF - the programme should be woven around these and link back to them.
Data driven - with robust processes that are data driven including feedback, and the consistency of feedback.
The UK College of Policing with Deloitte conducted an independent review of the SCC and SPNAC programmes in December 2022. As a result of this review the process for 2023 changed with the creation of the Police Leadership Programme (Stage5) Executive Leaders (PLPS5EL) replacing the SPNAC and Strategic Command Course SCC from 2023. As an outcome of this review, a new PLPS5EL Programme will be a continuous assessment programme with successful candidates working on an individual portfolio. We have been working with the College of Policing to clarify what this means for our candidates.
n October 2022, we requested internal applications from colleagues interested in being considered for the new PLPS5EL programme. This was still a self-nomination process with applicants seeking approval from their Line Manager before submitting. Submitted applications were considered by the Chief Officer team, reviewed against the PLPS5EL criteria Level 3 of the Competency Values Framework. 10 endorsed Notes of Interest were received by closing date and in January 2023, following the Chief Officer selection panel, it was confirmed that all 10 applicants are supported to be considered for PLPS5EL with 8 being supported to be considered for this year’s portfolio submission by the end of March 2023 and that 2 should prepare for a subsequent date (tbc by the CoP).
The Leadership & Talent Team will host a development programme for successful candidates commencing with a Summit on 14, 15, and 16 Feb 2023. Having selected a third party supplier (P2P) to support with a development centre, PS are in discussion with them to develop an additional Development process following each individual’s portfolio review conducted by the College of Policing.
