Year 10 marks a pivotal moment for students as they begin to make choices that will impact their future careers. For those aspiring to join the police force, securing an opportunity to gain firsthand experience can be rare. Access to live police environments is understandably limited, and finding safe and age-appropriate placements is not always feasible. This is where Focus XR provides a compelling alternative.
Focus XR provides students with immersive access to real policing scenarios through 360-degree video and virtual learning experiences. Whether they wish to explore the high-pressure atmosphere of a control room, the methodical world of forensics, or the experience of being on patrol, they can engage in all this from their school or home environment.
Immersive 360 Police work experience for year 10
By immersing in actual roles within the police force, Focus XR introduces students to a wide range of careers, including:
- Community policing
- Crime scene investigation
- Emergency response
- Public safety planning
- Interviewing and investigation techniques
The benefits for schools and parents are just as precise. These experiences are safe, consistent, and accessible to all students, regardless of location or background. They level the playing field for students who might otherwise miss out on in-person placements.
For students, this means they get to test their interest in the role, reflect on the skills required, and understand the commitment and impact of a career in law enforcement.
Focus XR can be used as a standalone experience or to complement an in-person placement. It encourages independent exploration, builds confidence, and ensures students make informed decisions before entering a complex career path like policing.
Focus XR opens doors that might otherwise stay closed when real-world placements are limited. Itβs one step closer to future-proofing career education for every student.
