July and August 2025 – Screen time on devices

July and August’s Monthly Matter is how much time we spend on our screens and devices.

The UK Government are thinking about limiting the amount of time children and young people can spend on social media. 

Some of the things they are thinking about are:  

  • 2 hour limit on the use of individual social media apps
  • 10pm curfew on all apps for those under 18

Do you think these are a good idea? 

What rules do you have around screen time?
