I am not sure that the 1920's photos show the school badge or that possibly the Norfolks looks to be a better match.
I have been in touch with the Old Pastonians and the school magazine records that the school cadet corps adopted the school badge and buttons in 1931 following on from the 1930 instruction. Prior to that they believe that the Norfolk badge was worn.

This account https://www.northwalshamarchive.co.u...-risebrow.aspx suggests that by the late 1940s as a CCF the school was back wearing the Royal Norfolk Britannia cap badge..
