Frank ready to teach students
BOXING legend Frank Bruno will be teaching pupils of a Kent sports college who take part in a new package for post-16 students.
The Sports Academy package run by Priory School in Orpington will incorporate the Frank Bruno Boxing Academy alongside BTEC level 3, FA coaching and YMCA instructor awards. Frank will take time to teach the 14 pupils already signed up, who will receive two hours of training a day from September.
Laura Mcloughlin, leader of the BTEC for the sports academy, said: 'We were meant to be starting quite small with just a few teachers but we have had such a good response to the package that we have doubled the number of teachers and split the 35 pupils into two groups.'
