Smart move for new chess schools

Now what do
you learn at school in a typical
day?
A bit of
maths, some science maybe... But
chess is a bit less likely.
There was a
time when it was the game to
play - Kings and queens and kids
across the country saw it as
true test of skill.
And now a
national campaign is trying to
bring it back to a classroom
near you, so we sent Nel went to
find out more.

London
Classic 8th - 15th December 2010
Schools were welcome to visit the London Chess Classic
for free chess coaching and we had professional
chess coaches on hand to give individual or group
lessons or to answer questions about setting up a chess
club. A very enjoyable simultaneous display took
place on 9th Dec involving some leading British
players.
And the 1st London Chess Classic
Junior Tournament also took place on the 9th Dec
consisting of 6 rounds where children in each age group
were paired against each other. They played individual
games but schools scored as a team.
