Today at 10AM CT, Lightspeed is going live — and if the screen time conversation has landed on your desk recently, this is worth the hour. 📋

We're moving past the noise this morning: what the data actually shows, what instructional vs. non-instructional screen time really means, and how to walk into your next board meeting, parent town hall, or staff conversation ready to lead it.

We're heading to Nottingham next week for MATPN Midlands 2026 for two days built around the challenges that actually keep MAT leaders up at night.
From cyber risk and digital consistency across school estates, to AI in the classroom and strategic operations under funding pressure. The agenda is packed with the conversations that matter right now.
The Lightspeed Systems team will be on the ground across both days at the East Midlands Conference Centre. Whether you want to talk filtering, monitoring, safeguarding, or how to get more visibility across your trust's network, we'd love to connect.
📅 25–26 June | East Midlands Conference Centre, Nottingham

This year at ISTE 2026, Lightspeed is setting the record straight on screen time — and it starts with one number. 📊

📱 48 minutes.

That's the national daily average for K–12 student screen time during the school day. Less than an hour.

The headlines suggest a crisis. The data suggests a conversation. And the districts walking into board meetings and parent nights with their own numbers aren't on the defensive — they're leading it.

The debate around mobile phone bans in schools is shifting quickly.

With the UK Government proposing stronger measures through the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill, schools and trusts are being asked to balance safeguarding, student wellbeing, behaviour, and digital responsibility in increasingly complex ways.

In our latest blog, we explore:
The potential benefits of statutory restrictions
The challenges schools may face in practice
What effective digital safeguarding should look like beyond “just banning phones”

Here's what one modern filter bypass actually looks like:

A student uses generative AI to spin up an education site — not a rough fake, but something with plausible lesson content convincing enough to get correctly categorized. Once it passes review, the content gets swapped.

Some versions go further: hidden keyboard shortcuts that toggle between the approved view and full access, so it looks clean if anyone glances over.

Fast to build. Easy to repeat. Difficult to catch if you're only scanning once.

Lightspeed Filter addresses this with device-level re-scanning as page content changes — because what a filter approved at 9am may not be what a student is looking at by 10.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at Leading Safeguarding yesterday.

It was fantastic to see so many safeguarding professionals come together to discuss the challenges schools face in an increasingly complex digital landscape.

Tania's keynote explored how effective filtering and monitoring can help make safeguarding concerns visible on managed devices, and why supporting children and young people requires more than policy alone in a rapidly evolving online world.

If the session raised questions about safeguarding, filtering, monitoring, or how to identify concerns earlier, we'd love to continue the conversation.

Reach out to a member of the Lightspeed team to learn how we're helping schools gain greater visibility into student wellbeing and digital risk. https://shorturl.at/INeIB

Portland, thank you — and with that, AI Roadshow West is officially a wrap. 🌲🎉

Today's session was a fantastic way to close out the tour — great room, great conversation, great city to end on. From Phoenix all the way up the coast to Portland, every stop reminded us why getting district leaders together in person matters.

Thank you to AI for Education and to every single person who joined us

Today we're proud to be part of Leading Safeguarding, joining professionals dedicated to supporting and protecting children and young people.

If you're attending, stop by and meet Sam and Tania Mackie from the Lightspeed team.

We look forward to seeing you there.
