On top of that, since 2013, seventeen of our cadet leaders have received the pinnacle badge in NPCC, the SPF-NPCC Badge, from the Commissioner of Police.

Throughout the years, ESSS NPCC has collaborated with various external organisations which allow cadets to be actively involved in various Values-In Action (VIA) projects such as the NPCC Police Youth Ambassador (PYA) programme to spread the anti-crime and SG-Secure preparedness messages to the residents in the neighbourhood. Besides that, cadets also participated in major parades such as the NPCC Annual Parade at the Home Team Academy. Enrichment programmes such as Unarmed Tactics and First Aid are some of the engaging activities that cadets can look forward to participating.

Authentic learning experience in the NPCC unit are not only confined to the local context. Throughout the years, the unit has actively organised Overseas Learning Journeys (OLJs) to neighbouring countries such as Kahang (Johore), Bintan (Indonesia), Ho Chi Minh (Vietnam) and Hanoi (Vietnam). Our cadets have also participated in OLJs to Hong Kong and Brunei that were organised by NPCC HQ.

Cadets were also given the opportunity to represent the school in the various National Inter-unit Competitions such as Revolver Shooting Competition, Crime Scene Investigation Competition, Campcraft Competition, Footdrills Competition and Area6 Games (Sports) Day.
