Many teachers and parents are worried about the effects of social media on their children. Whether it's negative comments, becoming obsessed with friend counts, dealing with trolling or chasing likes, the world of social media is piling up new pressures on our students like never before.

In this week's episode, we speak to Claire Orange, expert and author on social and emotional learning. She explains how social media use is affecting our pupil's emotional development... and shares practical ideas for helping children navigate social media safely.
