Edinburghs Secondary Schools to Implement Mobile Phone Restrictions: A New Policy Decision Looms

After a successful trial at two high schools, Edinburghs parents and staff overwhelmingly support restricting mobile phone use in secondary schools.

The city plans to use these results to shape a new policy decision later this year, which could cost up to four hundred ninety-five thousand pounds annually. Other Scottish councils are also taking similar steps.
