I have had windows 10 since the Insider program started but I never needed to use sleep until now. But whenever I put my computer to sleep it wakes up 30 seconds later. I have made sure that my network card, keyboard,mouse and controllers aren't allowed wake the computer. How can I stop my Computer waking up?

go into an elevated CMD and type in "powercfg \lastwake" it should point you in the right direction

Also, as Ron mentioned, it is still beta software, and it is bound to have issues. Personally I have not had sleep issues with my machines (or rather they go to sleep even when I tell them not to), but it all depends on your exact settings and setup.

Back on win8/8.1 I had sleep issues with my laptop which were fixed with firmware and driver updates. Check your manufacturer's website and see if there are any updates to install.
There have been quite a few bugs with Windows 10 and the sleep function - they have released several patches that fixed problems in multiple releases now - remember, it is still in beta, so there are bound to be problems.

First, make sure that on the latest release, and all patches are installed. Next, check their forums (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_tp?auth=1) - this would be the best place to find out things.
