Brazil joins growing list of countries banning cellphones in schools
Briefly

Brazil’s new law banning cellphones in schools aims to safeguard the mental, physical, and psychological health of children and adolescents, ensuring better learning outcomes.
"The presence of a phone, we know all too well from our daily lives, can be a big distraction. Cellphones can majorly impact concentration," stated Manos Antoninis.
Brazil joins countries like France and the Netherlands in banning personal cellphone use in schools, sparking debate over the legislation's effectiveness.
UNESCO's recommendation notes that allowing smartphones only during learning activities could enhance education, suggesting that phones should be kept away to maintain focus.
