Closed petition Ban the use of mobile phones in schools

Closed on

Phones are causing children to soliaze less and less with each other and getting more and more attached to screens during break times and lunch times when they should be talking and playing. We should limit and control the amount of time our children spend on phones, especially at school.

Banning mobile phones at school is the start to children socialising more rather than them being attached to screens all day. Schools should also have a say in this situation and should ban phones from the premises as it is destroying people’s lives by the havoc a small gadget can do
