Smartphone Free Childhood
Smartphone Free Childhood is a movement of families standing together to delay smartphones and social media. As a school family, we are dedicated to working with Smartphone Free Childhood and supporting our parents to join the movement should they choose and provide them with abundant, powerful and accurate information as they navigate through parenting in a digital world.
The Smartphone Free Childhood Parent Pact is a way to band together with other parents in your area to agree to delay getting your child a smartphone until at least 14, and social media until 16.
It’s all about strength in numbers – if your child knows that other kids in their class won’t be getting a smartphone for a few years either, the peer pressure instantly dissolves.
It takes 30 seconds to sign the Parent Pact, and the more of us who do, the quicker we'll change the social norm.
