Working With Screen Addicted Young People

All Educators, Support Staff and School Leaders

This webinar shares information about screen addiction in young people. As we know, screen addiction is one of the biggest issues in education in 2026. Some experts go as far as saying it is the biggest societal issue faced by youth. We will discuss the mechanics of screen addiction, and how to support your students to make the best of their educational opportunities alongside screens, rather than being ruled by screens. School leadership may also be interested in our strategies to support families struggling with screen addiction at home.
