The widespread use of digital devices in schools and the integration of online learning platforms has led to prolonged periods of screen time for students. This contributes to negative impacts on students' mental and physical health, attention spans, productivity, emotional regulation, learning and overall wellbeing. Balancing the educational benefits of technology against the harmful impacts on a child's development has become a critical concern for both educators and parents alike.

The Problem



A digital wellbeing programme focusing on awareness and education can help schools ensure that students are using technology in a way that supports, rather than hinders, their learning and overall wellbeing.

Rooted in the most recent, peer-reviewed scientific research, my work provides specialized training, education, and guidance in creating and implementing a whole school digital wellbeing programme, be it through consulting or a series of workshops and talks.

More than this though, we can aim to build a culture of responsible technology use among students through student-led initiatives, which can include teachers, leadership teams, health professionals and parents to create a more positive and productive learning environment for everyone within the school community.

To create sustainable change in how students learn, study and unwind, to develop prevention strategies, and for maximum impact, awareness and education on the current issues, one-off workshops are not available.

The Process



The key components that are integral to how I work:

Active listening. Before I begin anything, the initial phase of my work is listening, understanding, and researching. This stage is important for me to proceed and apply what is needed to the unique situation and needs of your school, students and your staff.

Cross-team and student involvement. Creating a digital wellbeing programme for you or delivering workshops to you is only as effective as the collaboration is facilitates. That’s why cross team involvement and student involvement for maximum engagement is key to how I work, and its effectiveness. 

School value driven. Every school has a vision, a strategic direction, and values. Every school makes choices that facilitate that vision, direction and values. My job is to work within those parameters, not outside them. If a school works with tablets, my job is to ensure this technology is used to its best possible advantage for the academic success and mental wellbeing of your students, while minimising the harm it can do in these areas.

The use of positive language and the embracing of technology. Technology is a great tool that should be harnessed to its full potential for the benefit of all individuals. Because of that, I advocate the use of positive language when discussing our digital habits, and the responsible use of technology for the benefit of all. 

How I Work



If this is what is right for you, we'll discuss next steps such as timeframes, payment plans and deliverables, and then we'll get started improving the digital wellbeing of your students!

Using the information gathered from our initial consultation, i'll send over a bespoke proposal with a more detailed breakdown of what's included and package options based on your needs

I'll be in touch to set up an initial video consultation to hear more about your needs, and for you to ask further questions
