Is it St Andrews UTC/OTC? Whichever fits the period.

Aberdeen University OTC may also fit that profile.

Hi, The Mauritius Volunteers has a similar scroll configuration but has a King's Crown.
Cheers, John

Thank you for your help with the identification.

The badge has a very distinctive middle section on the scroll below the shield and I need to look closely at all the possibilities that I have been given.

Army Educational Corps? It looks quite different to the other one, in the photos.
