FIDE Chess in Education Commission ✓

The focus of FIDE’s Chess in Education Commission is to expand the global outreach for chess in education. Since children enjoy learning through play, chess is a powerful educational tool for the development of intellectual and 21st century skills. Chess can be implemented as a stand-alone subject or integrated into other subjects in the form of exercises, investigations, and chess-related activities. Game-based education engages students and improves the quality of the learning experience. Motivated students thus gain skills for success in and beyond the classroom.
