Netherlands Bans Phones in Schools, Sees Positive Results

About this episode

Two years after banning smartphones in Dutch schools, teachers report smoother class management and improved student attention. Students admit initial annoyance but appreciate more face-to-face interactions. Early surveys show a better social atmosphere and improved grades, with a dip in bullying. Researchers are now examining potential downsides, but kids report increased in-person connections. The Netherlands leads the way in rethinking kids screen time, with public support for social media curbs on the rise.
