"We are now in the 3rd month of working with Sweet Science at Burlington Danes Academy and have been hugely impressed with the quality of the sessions provided. We have currently targeted 3 groups and have observed a significant decrease in students without kit (0% this week), and a dramatic increase in the motivation of our students. Leroy has an excellent manner with the students and has already developed a strong rapport with his teaching groups. All students are fully engaged in the sessions and have shown high levels of progress in every lesson. The feedback from students has been particularly pleasing, and as a result we are now looking to expand our work with Sweet Science to incorporate a behavioural programme and lunchtime and afterschool sessions in addition to intervention work within the PE curriculum. The tone of the boxing sessions has changed both student and staff perceptions of boxing due to the non-contact, skill and technique focussed delivery and we are very excited about the development of boxing within our school.

We are most fortunate that Leroy at Sweetscience was highly recommended to us by several statutory young people’s organisations in the borough of Harrow.
Our experiences of Leroy’s business approach, conduct, communication and leadership and management of our challenging pupils have been first class.
He has proved to be exceptionally motivating in encouraging our pupils to engage in Box-exercise from day one to the present; this success is the first ever achieved by any instructor who has worked with the Harrow Tuition Service.
Leroy is without question a person of integrity and exceptionally committed to improving the health of those he trains, and strengthening their ability to work towards achieving their personal best.
He has shown excellent professional relationship with our staff and praised by the pupils for the ease at which he has managed them to work towards striving for their personal best.

"The service that Sweetscience has provided here at Northwood Prep since 2008 has gone beyond just the physical aspect, their programme has social and moral values and has kept our students completly engaged throughout. We continue working with Sweetscience and feel that all schools would benefit from these expertly delivered and educational classes."
Mr Ian Rice - Deputy Head, Northwood Prep
"We have been working with Sweet Science for over 6 months. During this time they have established an excellent working relationship with both the school and students. The instructors demonstrate the activities in a very positive manor and this reflects in the students attitudes to the sessions. The exercises are aimed appropriately at student’s ability and as a result everyone has been keen to take part. The sessions are well structured and most importantly safe! The equipment that is used is of a high standard and this I believe adds to the overall quality. I have no hesitation in recommending them to other schools and colleges.
At the start of the year I wasn’t sure about the nature of boxing and how it would work in a special school. Six months down the line my attitude has completely changed and I now recognise the many benefits that students gain from the non-contact drills and techniques demonstrated by Sweet Science.”
