Issue with School Time

I have a problem with School Time. The issue is that while my son is playing his online game, I enabled School Time when his online class starts. However, he is still able to continue playing his game. With School Time enabled, I thought it will block him at once but this seems to be not the case. He will only be block if he closes the game window and tries to access the game website again. What is the purpose for me to activate School Time if it doesn't stop him from playing games while class is on? One more feedback is if School Time can be enabled based on the Time and not Duration, I feel it would be better. Appreciate if anyone can help on this. Thanks.

I would suggest that instant block of a certain website could be initiated especially for those parents who are at work and cannot monitor their kids at home. Otherwise the School Time serve no purpose. Thank you.

Hi CFSL77,

Thanks for reaching out to Norton Family forums.

The gaming website is already opened in the browser before the School Time is initiated, and hence Norton Family would not be able to apply the School Time policy on a webpage that is already loaded.

We currently have Instant School Time with duration. However, the plan is to provide scheduling of school time in our upcoming product releases. 

Thanks,
Norton Family Team
