An enamelled metal badge of identical design is/was worn of the caps of the Canterbury Cathedral Constables, so I’d suggest looking at a Cathedral School ACF Det or similar.

Armed with that info - Mr Google suggests King's School Canterbury CCF.

A few photos online show the badge and also what looks like the subdued version being worn - well spotted.

I note from googling that a circular embroidered badge is shown as a beret badge.
