1. Can you play chess? *

Yes

Unsure

2. In terms of your attitude to chess please tick the statements you agree with *

My middle name is Boris and I was called in to the Kremlin to advise on tactics during the Cold War. I would also be confident to play a number of primary school students in a simultaneous.

I know a bit about chess and think I'd be confident enough to run a mini chess league with my class on Friday afternoons

I know enough to show the kids the basic pieces and let them at it themselves at break time. I know more about tic tacs than tactics!

Chess? I'm more of a draughts player. I'm going to the toilet as soon as he starts asking questions about chess!

Strongly Disagree

Strongly Agree

play with my friends

7. How I feel about teaching children social skills through chess in a group (possible a whole class) *

Bring it on!

I'd give it a try - what's the worst that could happen!

I would try it. Is there a support group or mentor who could help if I had questions?

I'd sooner try teaching maths through the medium of dance!
