Go in schools

A "game of Go" activity in school ?

A well-integrated "game of Go" activity allows the children to practice a recreational and constructive activity, often in extracurricular time. It improves the motivation of the children and also promotes communication between students and the school institution.
Especially, children with learning difficulties may be motivated by this new activity that would allow them to value themselves and find a place in the class.


You are a teacher, school director and you want your students to discover and explore the game of Go ?
The Belgian Go Federation supports the development of Go in schools. Just contact us.
