Blackstone's Police Manuals, endorsed by the College of Policing, are the only official study guides for the NPPF Step Two Legal Examination (formerly OSPRE® Part I).

Straightforward and accessible, Blackstone's Police Manuals offer you the only comprehensive version of the 2017 syllabus and they are the only resource used by question writers when preparing a NPPF Step Two Legal Examination. The four volumes of Crime, Evidence and Procedure, Road Policing, and General Police Duties cover all aspects of criminal law and procedure, with key parts of legislation reproduced for your reference and with each chapter professionally checked and reviewed by the College of Policing. Complex or commonly misunderstood areas feature handy Keynote boxes, which point to relevant case law or provide an example of how material is used in a practical sense, helping you to establish the connections between legislation and police procedure. The 2017 edition has been updated to incorporate all recent legislative developments and case law, including coverage of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014, the Criminal Procedure Rules 2015, the Serious Crime Act 2015, the Criminal Justice and Courts Act 2015, the Deregulation Act 2015, and the Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015, as well as revised PACE Code E (February 2016).
