It may not be a sound strategy, unless European students somehow don’t have the ability to be sneaky.
In Victoria, Australia, we have a full ban of phones that are outside of student lockers, but we use them anyway, and many don’t get caught simply due to strategy, either quick reflexes, the sleeve technique, or other ways to hide a phone when a teacher is nearby (or even not need to hide it, since some teachers just don’t care).
I suggest a better idea is to adjust classrooms to be more suited to digital interaction, such as allowing phones for certain things like quizzes or other activities, which would make learning less of a chore, especially if the education system is similar to VCE, with pretty much exclusively book work and laptops are heavily restricted.
Also, I don’t understand for the life of me why people believe having tech in a classroom is a burden and must be banned, they should just take our advice and adjust the curriculum to not be as monotonous and make it at least slightly engaging.
