We are proud of our smartphone policy because:

In the words of one Ashmead parent, "Thanks so much, I fully support this policy. And I'm so grateful as this will help reduce the peer pressure to buy a mobile phone early."

Additional policy features:

- We never ask children to use smartphones for lesson related activities or otherwise,

- We actively engage with parents and children to educate on the downside of smartphones
