Forces cadet units in Norfolk schools are set to be expanded after being allocated extra funding to increase the number of pupils taking part.
Education secretary Gavin Williamson has announced a £1.1 million injection of investment to increase capacity at existing school-based “combined cadet force” units to employ more staff instructors to help run them.
The combined cadet force programme began in 2012 and aims to offer students a range of “challenging, exciting, adventurous and educational activities”.
Each unit is a partnership between a school and the Ministry of Defence, with Royal Navy, Royal Marines, Army or RAF sections.
