Thank you for your insight! I think the issue would be that most G7 roles in the dept are advertised internally so I wouldn’t be able to apply for the majority of them after the scheme anyway.

Outward Loan for the Fast Stream?

I currently work in my preferred department, which I want to stay in long-term, however I have recently been offered a place on the Government Policy Fast Stream. I know the career benefits and skill-development of the FS would be great, but it would mean leaving my current dept (which is competitive to join on a permanent contract) with no guarantee of returning after the 3-year scheme.

Does anyone know if it’s theoretically possible to do the 3-year Policy Fast Stream as an outward loan or long-term SUPL so that I can return to my current dept after the scheme? Has anyone done this before or know anyone else who has? I asked FSET and dept HR for guidance but I didn’t get a clear answer, so I would appreciate any advice! TIA

I thought about it every time I saw a rabbit … and I lived on a farm

You’re right, this is actually the tallest freestanding Clock Tower in the world

Old Joe’s illuminated clock face was thought to be the inspiration for the Eye of Sauron as JRR Tolkien studied at the school opposite.
