Finally nailed it. The school wore the collar badges shown below in their caps in the 1920s and then in the 30's this QWR badge was in use. The badge in post 1 is not a match.

I had a.conversation with a.fellow a.few weeks ago. He seemed to think that the Ist cadet battalion dets were already or about to be no longer badged as KRRC cadets.

For any forum bidder £30 is a lot for a school badge that is not military.

I have seen several school hat badges sold as OTC badges and they all have tiny loops that are far too small for a khaki uniform cap or beret but are ok for a thin cloth school hat.
