Let Your Child Discover the Joy of Chess!
Our Primary School Chess Coaching Programme offers a fun, structured, and enriching experience where children learn the beautiful game of chess through tactics, strategies, and creative thinking.
By playing with like-minded peers over the chessboard, children build confidence, sharpen their minds, and develop a healthy sense of competition — all while having fun!
What Makes Our Coaching Unique:
Interactive Learning: Chess concepts are taught clearly, and children earn points when they successfully apply them in their games.
Reward System: Every game counts! All players earn points, win or lose, reinforcing progress and motivation.
Termly Tournaments: We host exciting in-school chess tournaments, with awards and certificates presented in school assemblies and within the club.
Player of the Week: We strive to recognise every child with the Player of the Week award throughout the term.
Inclusive for All Levels: Children are paired with others of similar ability, ensuring everyone can grow in a supportive, pressure-free environment.
Competition Ready: We prepare and encourage children to take part in individual, school, and inter-school chess competitions.
Most importantly… they’ll be having fun — and that’s the best way to learn!
