Chess as an Educational Tool

Promoting chess for educational purposes in curriculum hours is our priority. It's not just about teaching how to play, nor about creating better players, but about implanting chess in the education systems.

This can be as a curriculum subject with its own school time or as a transversal and interdisciplinary tool with chess integrated in other curricular subjects without taking away curricular hours from these.

Chess is also suitable for children aged 2-6 to promote social and simple logic skills (eys.fide.com). We favour instruction by qualified education professionals over chess tutors.
