π³πΏ ONE YEAR AFTER NEW ZEALAND'S SCHOOL PHONE BAN: THE SURPRISING RESULTS
New Zealand banned phones in schools to boost learning, but research shows mixed outcomes after 12 months.
While some students admit reduced distractions, many simply found clever workarounds - including using walkie-talkies to communicate.
Young people's biggest complaint? Not being consulted:
"It feels like they just ban everything, thinking it will fix the problem"
UK data reinforces student skepticism, showing "no significant difference in academic grades" between schools with strict bans versus relaxed policies.
