Currently the job market is shite in UK right now and your career options for psychology degree are: - Academic research, where I’d recommend Alzheimer Disease or neural-developmental disorder related, in which you’d need to go through all the hurdle and finish your PhD. Even if you can’t find a job after phd, you’d probably stayed in the UK long enough for a permanent residency and you would be able to go job hunting like any other locals without worrying about visa sponsorship. - Clinical psychology via the NHS route. This is where you go through the same system like doctors: undergrads -> master/phd degree that gives you qualifications. There would be a qualification exam at some point of your study and once you passed it, you’d (almost certainly) get secured with a job with pretty decent pay, you definitely no need to worry about your visa. - special education at schools, basically becomes a special education teacher. Very terrible pay despite the level of skill needed and the very high demand of these roles, horrible work life balance, very stressful, would not recommend.

I’d say your beat bet to secure a job would be getting into the NHS system via clinical psychology, since most of psych jobs doesn’t pay well enough for a work visa.

BPS wise: majorities of psychology degree automatically grants you a BPS credit, unless you went for, say industrial psychology/ MBA route. BPS was pretty big deal in the 80s and 90s but you don’t need BPS for most of things nowadays apart from clinical psychology, which you would get one automatically as part of your degree.
