The United Arab Emirates has implemented a smartphone ban in UAE schools to improve student concentration, discipline, and academic performance. Under this policy, students are prohibited from carrying mobile phones on school premises. First-time offenders will have their devices confiscated for a month, while repeat violators may not have them returned until the end of the academic year. This initiative aims to create a distraction-free learning environment, addressing concerns about decreased attention spans and increased exposure to cyberbullying associated with excessive smartphone use. By reducing these distractions, schools hope to enhance student engagement, classroom behavior, and overall well-being.
