The problem
Running a school chess program is harder than it should be
Great coaching gets lost in admin. Schools struggle to prove the value of a program they believe in.
Classes run on spreadsheets
Rosters, attendance and lesson plans live across scattered docs. Onboarding a new coach means re-explaining everything from scratch.
Progress is invisible
There's no clear picture of what each student has mastered. Without tracking, it's hard to show the program is actually working.
Parents are left in the dark
Families pay for chess but rarely see results. When renewal time comes, there's nothing concrete to point to.
The solution
One platform for your entire chess program
Everything coaches and coordinators need to teach, track, and report, without the spreadsheets.
Structured curriculum
A progression of lessons from first moves to tactics and endgames, organised by level so every coach teaches a consistent, proven path.
Puzzles & exercises
Themed puzzle sets reinforce each concept. Coaches record completion and scores to see what's sticking.
Progress tracking
Follow every student and class at a glance. See mastery by topic, not just attendance.
Parent-ready reports
Generate a clean progress report for any student or class and export it to share with families and school leadership.
Class & student management
Set up classes, add students, and keep your rosters in one place. New coaches are productive on day one.
Built for schools
Designed around how schools actually run chess. Terms, classes, and the people who need to see results.
How it works
Up and running in a single afternoon
Set up your school
Create your classes and add students in minutes. Invite the coaches who'll be teaching.
Teach with the curriculum
Run lessons from a structured, level-based library. Record puzzles and exercises as students complete them.
Share the results
Track progress across classes and students, then export reports to share with parents and school leadership.
Built with chess coaches who run programs in Australian schools
“For the first time we can show parents exactly what their child has learned. The reports alone make renewals an easy conversation.”
“I used to plan every lesson from scratch. Now I follow a clear curriculum and spend my time actually coaching.”

FAQ
Questions, answered
Do we need our own chess coaches?+
ClassChess works whether you have in-house coaches or run an external program. The platform gives any coach a structured curriculum to follow, so even newer coaches can deliver consistent lessons.
Do students need their own logins?+
Not to get started. Coaches manage classes and record progress, and students appear as records on the roster. Student logins are on our roadmap for a later phase.
How do parents see progress?+
Coaches generate clean progress reports for any student or class and export them as a PDF or CSV to share with families and school leadership. No separate parent accounts needed.
