Ah schools. Life's first taste of arbitrary rules. Some schools here are ~~confiscating~~ stealing kids' phones for a week.
I'm glad I don't have children to send to those part time prisons.
Having kids focus on the lesson and real life socializing is not a bad thing.
Confiscating their phone for a week is not acceptable, unless they've had it confiscated till the end of the day a few times already.
IMO it's not acceptable regardless. The school's jurisdiction as it were ends at the door. Anything beyond that is theft.
