✍️ A study by the University of Birmingham found no link between banning phones in schools and improved grades or mental wellbeing, but did find a correlation between excessive phone use and negative outcomes.
👉 No link found between phone bans and improved grades or mental wellbeing 👉 Link found between excessive phone use and negative outcomes 👉 Schools with phone bans did not see improvements in health, wellbeing, and focus in lessons 👉 More time spent on phones and social media linked to worse mental wellbeing, mental health, physical activity, sleep, and grades
