I guess that circulation feedback was filed directly into the shredder.
No way that gets run by the coal face and comes out with all those issues ready to go.

Do we think maybe it should have gone to just WHQs and maybe OC Wgs at this point rather than to ALL ahead the change in 3 weeks

Yeh, nothing official seen down here yet. Only whatās been posted on here!
Will the new staff cadet therefore be able to claim mileage? Would they still pay subs?
All questions that I am sure have been fully thought through with answers ready to go on day one when the policy changes.

What about CI
(Where CI in this case = confirmed incompetent)
In short no.
Ww complain of trickle down comms and yet in this example of direct to all you suggest the filter is reapplied?
It hasnāt gone direct to all, itās trickle down. Hence why some of us havenāt had the information yet.
If it was up to me? Yes and no respectively.

Iāve had to remove an image from this thread, Iāll be open and say it was at the request of HQ, on the basis it was a direct screenshot of an Official document, and should not have been shared outside of Bader.
Friendly reminder that itās easier, and safer for all concerned, to post links to Bader documents than it is to upload shots of them.

With us being under the āRAFAC brandā does anyone know happens with CCF cadets when they get to Year 13 aged 18. As presumably they canāt continue in the CCF as they would leave school that year, if they turn 18 earlier in the year do they have to stop or do they go through the same DBS process etc?
CCF had already been operating under different rules that didnāt require the same process as ATC cadets.

Thatās where the problem lies, I know we are going to have this split naturally especially with more of the established set however there shouldnāt be 2 processes for the āsame organisationā. ATC changed to entry from year 8 over 12 a little while ago. When I joined it was 13. Do they have Staff cadets in the CCF?
Iām Sure itās elsewhere in this thread but each school CCF is effectively itās own cadet force in its own right - there is no central organisation per se as under the education act the headteacher is the DDH & the energy to get something through parliament isnāt there.
So CCFs will follow the mix of Army, RAF & schools own policy to reach a happy negotiated medium.
I think the CCFs pay more into the system that they get out so you donāt want to upset the magic money tree thereā¦

So in a sense their CO is the headteacher of the school? The Regional Commandant I suppose is just there to offer a link to the RAFAC organisation to make it look more official in that sense then.

Each single service section will have an OC with a contingent commander overseeing the whole thing on a day to day basis.
The contingent commander is directly responsible to the head, with only a dotted rather than solid line of command to the individual HQs (though primarily to the Army as they have responsibility for all the CCF)
