Hiya mate ima bit late to the vid 😂, got a question for you Im hoping you can answer. I’m a 16 year old boy from Uk, i don’t know were about ur based mate but I live locally to Derbyshire fire and rescue and have aspired to be a full time firefighter since a very young age my friend. I recently went to the opening evening they held last Friday and was just filled with excitement and want to have the best chance of becoming a full Time firefighter a lot of my family have been firefighters as well as my dads pal who was a fireman for most of his life and managed to gain the rank squadron leader and know he was On a significant wage 😄. Its not about the money for me mate I just love the thought of being a fireman, it’s different everyday and entertaining and I love how honoured the fire crews of all towns and city’s are constantly and I want to be remembered by my family as they’re son that managed to do some good in life. My main concern mate is my school grades as I said I’m currently 16 and I’m not gonna lie to you mate I was a right little shit in school , I get my grades for my GCSE’S results this Thursday bro and can pretty much tell u what my grades are going to be and they ain’t gonna be pretty. I regret not listening in school and wish i cud turn back the time and do well and open the world to this exciting job to give me a better chance of doing so. So the main thing from this rant (my bad you’ve probably got so many better things to do than read this) is that I want to know if my GCSE results will have Oman impact on me being able to join the fire service wen I am 18 years old. I just hope my grades i get from these don’t decide instantly if I can get tr roll or not. I would say I’m pretty fit for a 16 year old and am fine with confined spaces and have researched fireman tests and how to become a fireman for ages bro and nothing bothers me it’s just my grades bro. So in the most honest way possible pleas tell me how my grades are going to effect me once I am 18 rocking up on the day of trials and if I will be aloud at All! Thank you for reading this hagn mate ❤

Currently we require all firefighters to have a level 2 qualification in Maths and English (GCSE A*-C or 4-9 or equivalent). You will be required to provide evidence of this if your application is successful.
