France Bans Mobile Phones in High Schools from New School Year
The French government has announced a ban on mobile phones in high schools starting from the new school year. President Emmanuel Macron has signed the law, which was initially part of a broader bill that also aimed to prohibit children under 15 from accessing social media. However, the Constitutional Council struck down the social media ban, deeming it an unjustified interference with freedom of expression and communication. The government maintains that the mobile phone ban will be effective from the start of the school year, despite some schools not being fully prepared.36 sourcesSee all sources
