July and August 2025 – Screen time on devices

July and August’s Monthly Matter is about 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?​
