Hi, the FPP in its former form is not being resurrected I'm afraid. It's a new exclusive arrangement with CTC in that BA will be tagging whitetail cadets at the end of the ground school stage.

The full criteria was as follows:

o 5 GCSE’s at C or above, including English Language, Mathematics and a Science subject (single or double award) excluding general studies

o PLUS EITHER 3 A levels or equivalent, at grades BBC or above (General Studies
excluded)

o OR an Honours degree at 2:2 or higher or a pass or above in a higher degree such as MSc, MA, MPhil, DPhil, PhD or MBA

o If you have equivalent academic qualifications then you will be asked to provide a Letter of Comparability from UK NARIC before attending your first selection day. The Scottish education qualification equivalents are detailed in the FAQ page

• EASA Class 1 medical and able to meet British Airways medical criteria

• A valid passport (with minimum of 12 months before expiry date) allowing unrestricted worldwide travel

• The unrestricted right to live and work in the UK

o No more than 1 ground school fail
o Minimum of 85% average
o No course deferral

• Your height will be between1.57m (5'2") and 1.91m (6'3") with weight in proportion to height (height is accurately determined during the assessment process).

- Based at either Gatwick or Heathrow on the Airbus fleet.

- Tagging currently available to only those cadets in the ground school stage of training at this time.

- CTC placement team to put names forward based on ground school performance.

- Cadets must then pass assessment at waterside.
