The Jamaica Combined Cadet Force is our nation's number one youth movement developing self-disciplined, confident and responsible citizens who contribute significantly to nation-building. The programme is run by the Ministry of National Security for students registered in government high schools across the country. As a student of Rhodes Hall High School in Grade 7, 8, 9 or 10, your child is able to apply to join this programme and begin training to become a stronger leader at school, home and ultimately in the wider society.
The JCCF uses training models similar to those used in the professional military. In fact, some courses in the JCCF are taught by members of the Jamaica Defense Force. Some courses and activities done in the JCCF include hiking, camping, swimming, First Aid, Music, robotics and weapons training. Members of the JCCF perform ceremonial duties at school functions as well as on national memorial days such as Independence Day and Heroes Day.
