Hi Judith (and Colin Paterson too), I'm afraid I can't offer much in the way of coaching, because (basically) I'd make a terrible teacher- of anything. However, what I am trying to do at Paisley Chess Club is build up a network of junior groups in the Glasgow/Paisley area to give the kids the chance to play other kids their own age, even if only occasionally. Once things are up and running, we could arrange a friendly match between Paisley's Juniors and your school, either at Paisley or Phones club. Kids are more likely to maintain an interest in chess (or anything else) if they have a bit of variety. Plus, if any of the kids are keen enough to play outside the school, they are aware of where clubs are.
