So at Emmanuel Macron's election campaign he spoke about he would ban the mobile phones. And now it is going to be a reality. From september 2018 there will be a zero policy about mobile phones. They may not even use it during their brakes!

And so am i. This ban may cause furious children, parents and teachers. It seems like to me that they are going to be way more strict and that might not be a good thing for the youngsters at the age of 7-15. The psycologic transition at that state says they are very curious and are about to develope alot of things. At the year of 7 they start slowly to discover their feelings and without the control yet it could get very bad for the pupils in general. The phone is a part of the network you are going to make when you get older. It starts there.

If they use the phone during the school, it will be taken away and handed back when the day is over. That means if every pupil is going to use their phone during the day which might happen. Then the principal might have a tough time giving the right phone back to the right pupil.

What are your thoughts on the banning?

They were pretty much banned before this anyway, you wernt allowed to use them in class same as here in canada. Not much will change the ppl who use em will use em and the teachers that bust em will bust em. Really not news tbh

The ban was not completely. and were only in some schools. possibly private schools. Now its all 5.300 schools across the country. So the effect of it is way bigger now. I have a feeling it might disrupt the learning process with all the you can't do this and that

EgN moments:

Why do you need a cell phone for the learning process? I went to school before and right as cell phones took off. You don’t need them in class at all. They should have areas in classrooms where students check in cellphones and get them back after class is over in every class room.

its not that without the phone it destroys the learning process. its the natural way of devopling ur mind that can be affected by it.
Im not stating a fact im just saying what could happen :)

I heard that they were doing this, and I think it's a bit over-doing it much restricting it to use their mobile phones in their breaks and lunch which if I'm not mistaken, is their own time. I understand not using it in class or having it in class considering it disturbs you and others from learning, but I do undersand the concept of this.

*DEAD* EgN|s BEST ADMIN TITTYSPRINKLES: i thought today was rulebreaking day my bad :-(
*DEAD* EgN| Terminator #Fishy Guy: yup, ma dick to long :)

This new law bans them from being used at all in school, which seems pointless as there was already a law saying they couldn't be used while teaching was happening. Not talking about private schools, talking bout public ones just like in canada.

I dont believe there was a law in france about that, can be mistaken
