I very much doubt that phones are an issue for bright and able kids but ARE an issue for those who struggle at school
How will they make sure though? We were not allowed fags in school but a lot of people got them in, we were not allowed to pass notes, but we did. Kids having distracting things in school is not a new thing and its something schools have never been able to control. Kids get drugs, knives and all sorts of contraband in....how will they be able to stop phones? Are they going to physically search every pupil, install some kind of scanner?

A ban in the classrooms I agree with although its never going to be a reality I fear.
