Default Unknown BCS title....Canadian or British.

Hello and good day. I have found this shoulder title and I'm really stuck here. I can't find anything relating to BCS, can anyone shed any lights on this.
All comments will be appreciated.

I would agree with Phil. Bishop's College School had (or has) a cadet corps that was organized on 28 Nov 1879 and ranked second in seniority among cadet corps - the corps at Le College de St Hyacinthe, also organized on 28 Nov 1879 was first in seniority. The BCS cap badge is shown in the Mazeas pre-1914 badge book on page 178 as CD4. I am wondering though about the abbreviation BRC on the cap badge.
