Should Mobile Phones Be Banned in Schools?

The Digital Diet

In this episode, I talk about:

• Guidance issued by the UK Department for Education encouraging schools to ban mobile phones during the school day
• The rise of smartphone ownership among children and its effects on screen time, ability to focus, mental and physical wellbeing, academic performance, social interaction, online safety and data privacy
• The potential impact of a school mobile phone ban on the learning environment, children’s academic performance, and their overall wellbeing
• The role and responsibility of tech companies and online platforms in protecting children from harmful or age-inappropriate online content
• Practical advice for parents on how to navigate new school policies and effectively communicate the rules, their purpose, and the implications of failing to adhere to policies to children
• The School Mobile Phone Policy Challenge
