Code Breakers
The NCS Code Breakers Course teaches students the hidden social and corporate codes which exist in the elite professions without which entry to and success in is limited; it is the polish & etiquette that most schools and Sixth Forms overlook.
Newham Collegiate Sixth Form Centre (The NCS) was set up to provide students with a ‘holistic education’ so that students can access the elite professions. A key element of this is our Code Breakers course.
Whilst most Sixth Forms prepare you for entry to university, The NCS sees its role as much wider than this. A degree from a competitive university is a pre-requisite and our reputation for securing 95% offers from Russell Group Universities is testament to our expertise and track record in this area.
Watch this clip from the BBC Documentary “Breaking Into The Elite” which demonstrates how these hidden codes affect candidates from less privileged backgrounds.
The NCS Code Breaker Course is broken down into three key elements:
- Walking the Walk – Codes for personal image and behaviour; clothes and shoes, hair, smells and fragrances.
- Talking the Talk – Codes for speech clarity, conversational grammar, better voice quality.
- Taming the Fork – Codes and passwords for table manners and social etiquette, at home, in offices, in restaurants.
A degree from a competitive university + the NCS Code Breakers Course = Professional Success
