What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Yondr pouches have been implemented in schools in Mayfield. This follows new official guidance from the Department for Education, which took effect on September 1, requiring all schools in England to be mobile phone-free environments by default, including during lessons, breaktimes, and lunchtimes. Specific schools, such as Bitterne Park School, require phones to be placed into the Yondr pouch and must not be seen during the school day.
