In a short period of time, you work towards a exciting and concrete goal, without the teacher having to make an extra effort. Schools can carry out the challenge completely independently, but it becomes even more fun when a 'real chess player' visits the school several times during the challenge.
The Chessity Diploma Challenge is of course also very suitable for beginners groups at (after school) chess clubs.
