The Public & Secondary School Cadet Association represented OTC units during the 1930's when War Office funding was low. Many OTC who were affiliated to this organisation wore their badges in lieu of a designated school pattern. The equivalent organisation for the Cadet Corps (pre ACF) was the British National Cadet Association. The War Office assumed responsibility for the PSSCA in 1938.

For cap badge of same design, see Rawlings Fig 1285.
