How to avoid students learning loss during the summer vacation

In January this year, the United Nations focused on the global learning disruption that is occurring in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The learning disruption is compounded by the digital divide between urban and rural communities, and inequalities.  

In addition to the learning disruption, summer vacation is approaching for many students which is associated with the well-known "summer slide".  Summer slide is the tendency for students to lose some of the achievement gains they made during the previous year. 






​













​Besides reading, educational, fun enrichment activities like chess should help reduce the dreaded summer slide. We intend to offer online chess classes and activities this summer starting July.

If you are interested, then let us know.  The intake will be small, and spaces will be limited since existing students will be given the firsts right of refusal.
