    Will a ban ultimately effect the desired result?

    I’m not sure what the best solution would be, but it seems like children should learn to engage with technology in a healthy way, and a ban seems counterproductive towards that goal.

      In some situations, using technology in a healthy way is not using it at all.Personally, i don’t see any benefit of using mobile phones at school.

      You can wish for healthy integration with technology, but that requires structure and planning. Which would still necessitate limiting their access to any and every app and website.

      Phones in school don’t serve a purpose that can’t be met by a computer lab.
