Prohibition of Mobile Phone Use in Elementary Schools
July 21, 2026
The use and carrying of mobile phones in elementary schools is prohibited, according to the school guide from the Ministry of Education. This decision aims to prevent children's isolation and the development of antisocial behavior. It also seeks to protect personal data and to prevent health issues caused by frequent phone use. Carrying phones is also banned during school trips to encourage natural interaction among children. Parents and children are informed in advance about these guidelines ahead of the new school year.
