Re: Chess for Schools : Memorandum of Understanding
For ease of reference, I started a separate thread with the text of the announcement. (Headed "Announcement" - I wasn't feeling very imaginative.)

Re: Chess for Schools : Memorandum of Understanding
The withdrawal of the DCMS grant appears to have come in handy for once!
Blaming the non-renewal of the MoA on the lack of grant seems somewhat churlish. Maybe the schools (at least) will be satisfied by this explanation?
Possibly the rest of us have an alternative explanation.
I note that HP remain committed to the project : when was the most recent batch of sets manufactured and delivered? Anyone have a clue?
I believe that the most recent delivery was to Stockton-on-Tees in February 2010 ( but I am prepared to be corrected ).
