Strict bans on mobile phones in schools have “close to zero” impact on student learning and show no evidence of improvements in attendance or online bullying, a study has found.

Well now, that’s something entirely different. I never assumed that banning phones was going to be having effect on attendance or bullying. I wouldn’t think either of those are even in the top five of anyone’s reasoning for Banning phones in school.

Also I don’t know if any ban has been an effect long enough to really get accurate data.
