We are campaigning for regulatory & societal change to protect kids from online harm, addictive screens & edtech in schools.safescreens.org England, United KingdomJoined March 2024
With all the noise around the OSA. This👇is really important.
Our proposals for a tobacco style regulatory framework seek to restrict the use of addictive by design smart devices for children and provide a simpler solution that would keep kids safely connected. It’s a no brainer

Wide-ranging polling underlining the extent to which disastrous school closures and pandemic 'mitigations' continue to cast their long shadow over children.
Also challenges viability of OSA as a mechanism for stemming online harm to kids.

A devastating assessment of how we’ve failed young people. Teen views on stress, anxiety, social media, drugs & school closures “a generation in the grip of a confidence crisis” @UsforThemUK@Moreincommon_

The explosion of the unregulated multibillion pound EdTech industry needs serious scrutiny. If we are replacing proven pedagogical methods with online class/homework it must benefit academic attainment. The evidence we’ve seen would indicate otherwise @educationgovuk@CommonsEd

It is absolutely within the gift of @10DowningStreet to legislate to ensure that smartphone manufacturers do what @jessphillips wants. In fact for 3 yrs we’ve been campaigning for a tobacco-style regulatory framework to create a new market place of safe smart devices for children
Brilliant from @CitySamuel
“Everyone can agree on the need to protect children… But…the most sensible way…would be to tackle the problem through the devices children use, rather than by telling Ofcom to remodel the internet.”

The ramifications of an Online Safety Act that fails to protect children does a staggering disservice to families. As our under resourced regulator struggles to enforce complex legislation other countries are working faster & smarter to provide targeted protection to kids online

This is exactly why our campaign focuses on a tobacco style regulatory framework for smartphones which continue to present easy access to harmful content for kids and illicit damaging self comparisons. Government must do better to protect children and fast telegraph.co.uk/politics/2025/…
France prohibits the use of screens for children under 3 in childcare settings. @CaVautrin Minister of Health. “This measure aims to better protect young children, at an age when screens alter the development of language, emotions and social bonds.”

Labour are wrong to dismiss our proposal to ban smartphones in schools as a “gimmick.”
Parents are right, the current guidance is not working. DfE’s own evidence shows that phones disrupt nearly half of GCSE classes everyday. We can & must do more.

📵“We are insistent there should not be smartphones in schools” says Peter Kyle MP - and Mumsnet users agree.
🚨But govt 'guidance' is not working: 64% of parents tell us their child’s school allows phones during the day.
