The Margulies Report, conducted in the USA, recorded a 25% improvement in reading skills by students attending regular chess lessons when compared to a control group who participated in extra language activities.

Chess provides educational development that teaches children to play by the rules and take responsibility for their actions. The stimulating nature of chess also encourages confidence and presents an improvement in social skills. The game of chess is calming and therapeutic; which in turn, helps with Anxiety, Autism, ADHD and many other conditions.

The benefits are recognised worldwide, with over 30 countries including chess as a mandatory subject in their school curriculum. There are only winners and learners in chess โ€“ the gymnastics of the mind.
