The Newfoundland and Labrador government has implemented a new policy when it comes to cellphones in schools. K-6 students are “encouraged” not to bring them and can’t have access to them. Students in Grade 7 and above have to switch off the phones and store them out of sight during teaching time. But with 13,000 comments, one rule was changed.
