Moving on from Beyond 360: A smarter next step for police HR

With the College of Policing’s Beyond 360 product now being phased out, many forces are facing a clear challenge:

How do you replace it without losing consistency in leadership development and promotion processes?

Beyond 360 wasn’t just a tool — it underpinned how forces assessed behaviours, supported progression and maintained alignment with the CVF.

Replacing it with a generic 360 platform risks:

• Losing alignment with policing frameworks
• Inconsistent feedback across teams and ranks
• Weaker evidence for promotion and talent decisions

That’s why this isn’t simply a procurement decision.

It’s about protecting the integrity of your people processes.

A purpose-built alternative for policing

Head Light provides a solution designed specifically for UK policing — not adapted from another sector.

Our police 360 feedback platform enables forces to:

• Maintain alignment with the CVF and national frameworks
• Deliver consistent, structured 360 feedback at scale
• Support fair, evidence-based promotion decisions
• Strengthen leadership development across the organisation

All within a system already trusted across policing.

Don’t lose what Beyond 360 gave you

Forces that act early can transition smoothly — without disrupting development programmes or promotion pipelines.

Those that delay risk fragmentation and lost insight.

Start your transition

If your force is moving on from Beyond 360, we can help you move quickly and confidently to a CVF-aligned 360 tool.
