Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 June 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

Limiting the use of smartphones in our schools would support our teachers and our school leaders. It would improve pupil safety and make a significant difference to our children’s safety and life chances. I hope that this is a policy area on which we might achieve some consensus in this House. The arguments are strong. They would speak for themselves, but they are eloquently supported by noble Lords. I support these amendments.
