For those who are studying for their GCSEs, a recent study warned that watching television was linked with a decline in results when compared to students who shun the box.
Research involving 845 students aged between 14 and 16-year-old in Cambridgeshire and Suffolk found an association between watching TV and a drop of two grades.
Lead researcher Dr Kirsten Corder, from Cambridge University, told The Telegraph: “Television, computer games and internet use were all harmful to academic performance, but TV viewing was the most detrimental.
“I do think there is a role for schools to educated children in the detrimental effects of screen viewing. Zero hours would lead to better academic performance.”
Parents who are concerned about their children being stressed during exams are advised to make sure they eat healthily, sleep well and exercise, according to the NHS.
