School phone ban one year on: our student survey reveals mixed feelings about its success
CANTEBURY: (Apr 1) One year after the government banned cellphones from schools to help students focus and reduce distractions in class, we’re beginning to see how it has been implemented and how successful it’s been.
As part of that process, our new research asked young people about the ban. Unsurprisingly, they had a lot to say.
Schools around the world, including in Australia, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, China and parts of the United States, have implemented similar bans. The guiding principle everywhere has been to help students do better in school.
