About this market
Exact market question
Will the UK Department for Education announce a formal ban on smartphone use in all secondary schools by September 12, 2026?
Background
Following the 2024 guidance and ongoing pressure from parent groups and unions, the government is debating moving from guidance to a statutory ban to improve concentration and mental health. The resolution depends on an official announcement or policy white paper from the Department for Education or the Secretary of State. This is trending as the new school year begins across England and Wales.
How it settles
This legacy market has no separate published settlement rule. It cannot settle automatically unless objective evidence clearly maps the result to YES or NO.
Open official sourceTie, draw, or no clear result
Published settlement criteria come first. An uncovered tie, draw, cancellation, or other result is not assigned YES or NO by default; it is reviewed against the question and objective evidence. If no fair mapping can be established, the market may be voided and all stakes refunded in full with no fee.
