WHY SCHOOLS NEED THIS NOW
With the national ban on social media for students under 16, teachers are facing:
digital withdrawal behaviours
irritability, restlessness, distraction
increased peer conflict
identity instability
emotional volatility
attention crashes
anxiety linked to social disconnection
Schools are responsible for supporting students through this adjustment — but staff have not been trained in the behavioural, neurological, and psychological impact.
This PD fills that gap instantly.
