Dd is in Year 9 and has to choose between D of E or Combined Cadet Force (CCF) for Year 10. She has to make the decision quite soon. For CCF they can choose between army, navy and RAF.
She really fancies the RAF so will put that as first choice and then possibly D of E as second choice then navy. She definitely doesn't want to do army!
Can someone tell me the pros and cons of both? I've heard that D of E is much more time consuming. For CCF they just have to turn up each week plus a couple of weekend commitments throughout the year.
They don't all get their first choice so I'm worried she might end up with D of E and then will struggle time wise.
