A Six-Week PSRAS Study Plan for Busy Candidates
Six weeks is enough for focused PSRAS consolidation if you already have baseline reading and some supervised or observed practice. This plan sequences Code C depth, identification and ethics units, timed mocks, and CIT scenarios for candidates who cannot take months away from work but can commit daily structured blocks.

Telephone Advice in Custody Cases: PSRAS and Practice Notes
Not every custody matter needs immediate physical attendance, but telephone advice carries heightened risk — thinner disclosure, privacy failures, and clients who misunderstand remote limits. PSRAS candidates and working reps must know when phone advice suffices, when to travel, and how to document either path defensibly.
Career
Ethics and Conflicts for Police Station Representatives
Ethics units in PSRAS and real-world practice intersect constantly. Representatives face conflicts between co-defendants, prior knowledge of witnesses, confidentiality boundaries, and pressure to breach privilege. Knowing when to act, when to decline instructions, and when to escalate protects clients and careers.

PSRAS is the accreditation framework for people who provide legally aided police station advice in England and Wales. It sets standards for knowledge, portfolio evidence, and assessment so representatives can work under appropriate supervision within a criminal defence firm.
PACE · 9 min
PACE Code C Guide for Police Station Representatives
PACE Code C under the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 governs detention, treatment, and questioning of suspects. Police station reps must know custody rights, the caution, interview rules, vulnerable suspect safeguards, and detention reviews — core PSRAS assessment territory.

Critical Incidents Test (CIT) — PSRAS Assessment Guide
The CIT presents realistic custody or interview scenarios and asks candidates to identify issues, prioritise actions, and justify decisions — often under time pressure. It tests application of PACE Code C and related procedure, not rote memorisation alone.

No. PSR Train is independent preparation and practice — it helps you get ready, but accreditation itself is awarded by your assessment body. We align our content with the PSRAS syllabus, PACE 1984, and Code C.
It is built around the assessment: timed mock exams under real conditions, CIT-style scenarios, and questions mapped to the PSRAS syllabus units, each with a worked explanation so you learn the reasoning, not just the answer.
It is completely free while we are in testing, with no card required. We will introduce a paid subscription later — candidates who sign up now start training free straight away.
Practice questions across every syllabus area, timed mock exams, critical-incident scenarios, learning modules, and progress tracking that shows your accuracy and weakest topics.
Candidates preparing for Police Station Representative accreditation (PSRAS) in England and Wales — whether you are starting out or polishing up before assessment.
PSR Train is free now and moving to a paid subscription later. Create your account today and start preparing — no card required.
