What Your Child Learns
A structured 12-month journey from absolute beginner to confident tournament player. Every milestone is deliberate.
All piece movements, special rules (castling, en passant), basic checkmates, and how to read a chessboard.
Forks, pins, skewers, discovered attacks, and daily puzzle training to build pattern recognition.
Core opening principles, 2–3 solid openings for White and Black, and understanding opening ideas vs. memorisation.
King and pawn endings, rook endings, opposition concepts — the skills that actually convert wins into victories.
Pawn structure, piece coordination, weak squares, open files, and long-term planning beyond just tactics.
Game analysis, time management, clock discipline, tournament mindset, and competing in UpZen monthly cups.
Every child progresses at their own pace. Batches are level-based, not age-based — so your child is always challenged just enough.
