Still spending time managing phones in school? In one month, pupils at Thornden School each went the equivalent of five full days without accessing their phone.
Even with a phone-free policy in place, devices keep finding ways to distract. Notifications in pockets. Phones in toilets. Staff pulled away from teaching to police behaviour that should not need policing. The rules exist. Enforcing them is the problem.
LOKT removes that burden entirely. It is a software that automatically pauses distracting apps during school hours, with no hardware, no manual intervention, and no additional workload for staff. Teachers stay focused on teaching. Operations teams have nothing to manage. The app simply runs.
Because LOKT is a pure digital solution it deploys quickly, scales across a whole school or multi-academy trust, and meets DfE phone-free guidance from day one.
In our first full-school trial at Thornden School in Hampshire, 52 pupils logged 7,007 hours of phone-free focus time in just four weeks. Participation grew every week, and Thornden chose to continue using LOKT after the formal trial ended.
Less disruption. Less policing. More time for what matters.
