Children’s under -14 advice against smartphone

Parents of thousands of children have been told that they do not give them a smartphone

Many schools have already banned smartphones on the site, but a part of the UK feels that it will be the first to be a counting policy that advises parents against giving children a smartphone at home.

The use of mobiles is already banned in schools in Monmothshire, South Wales, but due to an increase in cyber-Badmashi reports and the use of phone at home is affecting schoolwork, schools are going one step ahead.

Hedtekar Hugo Hachinson said, “We have received reports of students who are online at two, three, four in the morning.”

“We receive a lot of good issues, as all schools do, which come online from social media activity over the weekends, or when they should sleep,” said the head of Monmouth.

Mr. Hachinson said that schools worked on “strong” phone policies, but eventually the children’s time was spent largely outside the school, where many still had unrestricted access to smartphones.

While Monmothshire teachers admit that they cannot force parents not to give smartphones to their under-14 children, schools have taken a “big step” to advise what parents should do in their home.

Schools in some areas of Britain have already asked parents not to get their under -14 smartphones -like Saint albans, Belfast And Solihul in West Midlands,

But Monmothshire believes that they are the first counties in the UK where all secondary and primary teachers in both state and private schools are advising against smartphones for more than 9,000 children under 14 years of age.

One of those parents is being advised not to give smartphones to her children, who said that she felt like “the worst parents in the world” after constantly telling her 12-year-old son Monti.

“He was feeling,” he said.

“He will be sitting in the school bus without a phone and all the other people will travel with a phone. They found that it is quite difficult. I think it is more about the game on the phone for boys.”

Mam-off-three is worried about what his son could be done online and how “addictive” equipment, but Monty was offered “brick phone”-a word to describe the old models-a word that cannot connect to the Internet and only is capable of calls and texts.

As Monty was thought to give a smartphone, when he reached the secondary school, he had become one of his “biggest fear”, he and the other parents said that he was relieved that the school was taking ownership.

Schools hope that the intervention of teachers will help the parents who were worried that there would be no one for the smartphone, they would mean their child was “left”.

But some other people argued that their children were using smartphones without any problem.

The son of Nicholas Dorkings, who is going to the Secondary School in September, had his own smartphone when he was eight years old.

“He has always been on one,” he said.

“It’s like a cool thing, or [something to use] out of boredom. He is not so much on him, he is a TV boy. He does not take it out of his pocket every five minutes, he can place it down and just leave it. ,

Nicholas said that he could understand why the school wanted to join, but he believed that the smartphones were necessary how the youth communicate.

Eleven-year-old Lily’s primary school class is one of the first people to be targeted by the new policy, the teachers wrote after urging their parents to consider “brick phone”-if they felt that their child needed something to travel to school.

Lily said she felt that “14 to 15” was about the right age for children to get their first smartphone, by then they could give a better opportunity to know if they read online “It was not true”.

“We came to know that one of the four children have been cyber-bullies within our school, which is really strange,” said The Year Six Putli.

“It should not be right, there should not be a chance for people to be cyber-bull, because we are really young.”

Lily’s classmate Morgan said he had found a smartphone, but he decided to stop using it after learn more about him in school.

“Most of the children here have smartphones,” said 11 -year -old.

“They are always 100% on it. When children come to play in some homes, they just go to their smartphones and just lessons.”

“I used to go to scroll on it only, but I was bored – but then I was not bored with not being on my smartphone. I decided to stop scrolling to read just a book or trumpoline.”

Schools in Northern Ireland are advised Ban the students By using the phone, there are teachers in Scotland Supported to introduce phone ban While living in Wales, headtechers have been described as smartphones “Lump sum” should not be banned,

In England, the commissioner of children has said that the phone should be banned A decision for the main teachers But insisted that the parents had “real power” how their children used the phone with more time on them outside the school.

Therefore, now all the parents of all Monmothshire state and private schools will be told about the new smartphone of county in the coming months.

“This is not a school issue. It is an issue of an entire community and society,” said Mr. Hachinson, who has 1,700 students in a comprehensive school in Monmouth.

“Like all schools, we are experiencing high levels of mental health issues as a result. Smartphone addiction, addiction to being online.

“We have students who are spending six, seven, eight hours online outside the school. We have received reports of students who are online at two, three, four o’clock in the morning.

“So the impact on his school day, the impact on his learning and the possibilities of his life is really fundamental.”

Emma Manchand and her husband Kave offered to give their smartphones in a token of solidarity for their son Monty and to encourage their two younger daughters.

“We do 24-hours without a phone, which has been quite challenging,” he said.

“Sometimes we may fail a little. But for the first time I did so, although I was nervous, I felt that I had a little mini break.

“Children also like it, because of course they are asking us to keep their phone down.”
