The Numbers

Don’t just take our word for it.

The programmes we provide at Commando Joe’s have been tried, tested and proved successful.

Analysis of the average change in individual trait scores reported by children over consecutive terms demonstrates a direct corelation between the time allocated to our programmes and degree of improvement achieved. Girls scores increased more than boys scores on all traits (significantly on Empathy, Self-awareness, Communication and Teamwork), while pupils with EAL progressed more than non-EAL pupils on all traits.
