They should be in bags and turned off in school, or alternatively there should even be a “storage room” for them during the school day (mini lockers) but insisting on them being left home simply isn’t going to work. It’s 2021 and it’s neither sensible nor safe for teenagers to be out miles from home without any means of contact. It’s not like there are pay phones they can use.
If they implement this my daughter will be doing the same as she has been for the last year and a half at primary school; phone on silent, in a hidden inside zip pocket of her bag. She’s thankfully not dumb enough to get it out in school or blab about it to her pals. |

…it’s smart phones specifically rather than mobile phones, I believe…children will still be contactable and be able to contact etc which is essential…but it’s more to prevent access to social media and the taking of highly expensive phones to school…

some things are unenforceable and this is one of them. Wait till the government gets sued because some kid gets abducted all because they couldnt use their phone

…can you imagine all of those alien beings sitting on their planets right now and shaking their heads in disbelief…oh look at those humans, it’s taken this time to create the technology to move forward in their safety …and they’re banning the use of it…yep, that’s our government….
…in any cases of abduction as bots said…?…technology available in phones has been hugely important… |

I will stand and deliver my kid to school with his phone (when he is at high school and making his way to and fro alone) and am still waiting for LTs opinions on how banning them from school buildings will improve education. He's not very forthcoming with his opinion right now. But am hopeful he will have a good reason to suggest that its bad parenting to allow a child to take a phone to school.

Great news....they are a massive distraction. They can collect their phones as they leave school...Im sure there is a system. My company issued every member of staff with a mobile phone and thats how we were allocated our jobs/breaks etc. We had many spares that were held in a 'mobile' locker which we could access by a security system. Something like this where they can be deposited at the beginning of the day and collected at the end.
I really dont know how we got home in one piece before mobiles were around... ...if you think your child is unsafe walking to or from school then either take them and pick them up or get them to go with a friend. If someone is going to abduct them the first thing they are going to do is find and dump the mobile phone so they cant be tracked... Last edited by rusticgal; 05-07-2021 at 02:06 PM. |

It's obviously not working having them allowed at school. So it's worth trying to see what happens.
But after reading everyone's comments, I must admit after being staunchly for it, I'm actually a bit torn between the 2. |

Like it or not, mobile technology is a massive part of daily life for kids and adults alike.
I agree that the use in the classrooms if not part of a lesson is a distraction but to ban them completely seems unenforceable to me. Schools will be fighting a losing battle trying to keep them out...

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