Meta Quest safety information for parents and preteens.
Health & Safety
- To ensure consistency with our schools, a minumin usage age has been estabilished as 10+.
- Guidance for parents and youths has been substantially improved, and may merit schools communicating with parents of children using devices.
- For accounts attributed to users 10-13, new parental controls have been put in place. Our school devices can use these for management purposes.

- Students demonstrated an average 15% improvement in correct responses to multiple-choice questions after participating in a VR lesson.
- Students found VR learning more informative, engaging, interesting, useful and impactful than traditional approaches to learning.
- 100% of Teachers identified that students’ knowledge confidence improved to a good or very good standard after participating in a VR lesson.
- 75% of Teachers would prefer to deliver appropriate lessons in VR, having tried both VR and traditional approaches.
