Should students be allowed to have cellphones in schools?
Should students be allowed to have cellphones in schools? Yes but no. I believe that students can have phones after school, but not during learning time. My reasons are, once the school bell for the end of day has rung, children should be allowed to go on their devices, only from the age of 13, and in lunch times if they’re getting picked up early.
Firstly, they should be allowed on devices in lunch times if they’re getting picked up during lunch time. If in the morning your parents tell you to take your phone to school cause they might take you to get lunch during lunchtime, you will be tempted to check your phone but you’re not allowed. If your family could write a note saying, “Could my child be allowed on his/her phone at lunch to ring me and check if lunch is still on?”, then you should be allowed on your phone but only for a certain amount of time.
Secondly, only from the age of 13. By saying this it follows on from my first reason, which is saying you can go on your phone at school only if you are 13 years old or over.
Finally, once the school bell for the end of day has rung, children should be allowed to go on their devices. Once the school bell has rung at the end of the day children should be allowed on their devices because school has finished and the teachers don't really have to look after the kids. It might be better if they go on their devices once the bus roll has been called so that they don't miss the bus because of playing a game or contacting someone.
So that why I think cellphones should be allowed in schools.
