Make a schedule
If you aren鈥檛 the only one wanting to use the devices available, try and work out some sort of schedule for when you鈥檒l use them. But try and do this before you need to, because things can get fraught if you鈥檙e all fighting to use them at the same time!
Put your phone away
If possible, try to avoid using your phone for homework, as it鈥檚 easy to get side-tracked by other apps on there. If you鈥檙e not using it, then put it away somewhere else. And if you can鈥檛 avoid using it, then turn all notifications off. It鈥檒l be hard to press on with a difficult maths problem if you know your friend has just sent you a message.
Ask for help from school
If you don鈥檛 have any suitable devices for homework, then do let your school know, and they might be able to help. There could be a homework club, for example, where you鈥檒l be able to use school computers. Or they might be able to support you in other ways, such as loaning you a device to work on.
If you need support
You should always tell someone about the things you鈥檙e worried about. You can tell a friend, parent, guardian, teacher, or another trusted adult. If you're struggling with your mental health, going to your GP can be a good place to start to find help. Your GP can let you know what support is available to you, suggest different types of treatment and offer regular check-ups to see how you鈥檙e doing.
If you鈥檙e in need of in-the-moment support you can contact , where you can speak to a counsellor. Their lines are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
