Poll: Should schools ban phones?

Reporter Franklin County News

Hi neighbours, Waiuku College has decided to put the crackdown on cell phones during school hours both inside and outside the classroom.

However, not everyone is happy.

What do you think? Is it a good idea? Is the school going too far? Are there legitimate reasons a student may need a phone during school hours?
