Royal Air Force

The Royal Air Force Section was formed in 1951 its current establishment is 60 Cadets and 3 Officers. The Section thrives on competition focusing on the Regional and National RAF (CCF) Ground Training Competitions. Drill, First Aid, Leadership Tasks, Physical Fitness, Shooting, Aircraft Recognition and RAF Knowledge are at the heart of both the competition and therefore the Section's Training Programme.

Cadets selected to join the RAF Section are expected to pass the RAF Proficiency Award prior to attending RAF Summer Camp at the end of Year 10. Cadets will go on to complete the RAF Advanced Proficiency Parts 1 and 2 in Years 11 and 12. Besides proficiency and competition training Cadets will take part in a wide range of adventurous activities including archery, rock climbing, kayaking and abseiling.

RAF Section Cadets are part of the National Air Cadet Organisation and as such are entitled to apply for a wide range of air experience flying from the Gliding Induction Weekend, to Flying Scholarships and various International Air Cadet Exchanges. Local air experience flying through the Jersey Aero Club is also available to Cadets thanks to the generosity of the Royal Air Forces Associations (Jersey Branch).
