Labour MP Emily Darlington has warned that the times-tables app TT Rockstars may harm pupils' development by rewarding the time they spend online instead of the quality of their learning. She raised it at the Commons Science Committee. The app's founder says he shares screen-time worries and that every school will get a curfew and daily time limit from 24 November, with leaderboards switched off.
