ORGANISING
CHESS FOR JUNIORS
Can
Chess Scotland help me set up a schools club?
Certainly.
Chess Scotland has publications to help the teacher,
including a downloadable
Word document on how to organise chess in schools
(links to more documents can be found on the Schools
Home Page). Or you can email
us and we will be happy to give to a personal reply
Are
there any Inter-School Tournaments?
Yes, Chess Scotland organises tournaments for both Primary
and Secondary teams. CS organises the Scottish Schools
Team Championship and the Scottish
Primary Schools Team Championship, and more events
are available at all levels. Full details
available from the Schools Home
Page.
PROCEDURAL ISSUES
Do
you have a policy for working with children?
Yes, we review our policies regularly in this respect,
and in fact have recently updated our Child
Protection policies in consultation with other agencies
involved with schoolchildren.
