The Combined Cadet Force, formed in 1948, is an organisation in schools, colleges, and universities across the UK (Reading School’s CCF is believed to be the oldest state school Cadet Force in the country, having formed in 1900). It provides a program of military-themed training and activities for students aged 12 to 18 and aims to develop qualities such as leadership, self-discipline, teamwork, and resilience, while also fostering a sense of responsibility and community service.
