SLOUGH CHESS ACADEMY
Ostrich Chess Club
शतरंज अकादमी
We provide the local community with a place where children can learn to play chess and improve their existing skills while having fun. Our goal is for children to reach a level that is sufficient enough to compete in chess tournaments and enable them to take advantage of a plethora of online resources.
Danek School of Chess was founded by Mat Dydak Uramovski, an expert chess player with more than thirty years of tournament experience. He competes for the Hounslow Chess Club, the Slough Chess Club and the Middlesex County League. Mat holds a Baccalaureate in Film Production from the Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema in Montreal and a Postgraduate Certificate in Online Education from the Open University. He runs school clubs at the Langley Hall Primary Academy, Castleview School and Cippenham School.
Why play chess? Recent studies have shown that chess has a particularly positive effect on the development of primary school children. These findings have convinced educators in Hungary, Spain and Armenia to officially adopt chess as part of the school curriculum. A number of private schools in England have taken a similar approach.
