I had my DSC 1 scheduled to start tomorrow but I just had a voicemail from BASC informing me that they have cancelled due to the trainer testing positive for covid. Rescheduled to the end of October but feel gutted to have done all of the preparation and build up to find out with less than 24-hours notice.

That's life, my friend.
Just think of the bonus extra time you've now got for study. Better than catching covid, whatever.
 
Surprised they can’t pull in another trainer rather than cancel at such short notice. If they had a ring around I am sure even the other assessment centres would try to help if they could.
 
Sorry to hear that. In all honesty, I thought we were over all of that side of it since the vaccine rollout. My wife is in education and their guidance has basically been reduced to 'don't test for it and you won't even know you have it.

That's also why I was so surprised to have it cancelled.

As has been said, it gives a bit more prep time I suppose. It was just the build up of preparing and the excitement, followed by the sudden notice. Oh well

That’s a bummer, especially when ur primed ready to go, relax for a while, study a bit more, and you will breeze it👍🏻
 
I was supposed to be on the same course! Still it gives Kent Police another 6 week to sort out my FAC. Not too hopeful as it’s already at 7 months!

You rebooked on the October replacement? I'm holding fire (chortle chortle) on my FAC until I have this under my belt. I'm East Sussex though (only just)
 
Yeah booked in for October. Apply for your FAC sooner rather than later as it seems to be taking an eternity almost everywhere. You could have your DSC2 before you get your own gun at this rate. 🤷‍♂️

Don't hold back is my suggestion. Just state in the extra info section that your DSC is in progress. Remember it's not a prerequisite. Even a variation can take a glacial amount of time

Yep, I'll pop it in this weekend. Going to an Autumn Agriculture fair today and Sussex firearms licensing should be there so I'll feel them out on it. I've got a question for them regarding the doc sign off (form says for doc to email it over but my application asks me to upload it).
