    Netherlands implements classroom smartphone ban for students

    Netherlands implements classroom smartphone ban for students

    The Dutch government has announced a ban on mobile phones, tablets, and smartwatches in classrooms starting from 1 January 2024. The move aims to minimise distractions during lessons and create an environment conducive to focused learning.

    The use of these devices will only be allowed if they are specifically required for educational purposes such as digital skills lessons, medical reasons, or for students with disabilities.

    Education Minister Robbert Dijkgraaf emphasised the need to prioritise concentration and provide students with optimal studying conditions. He cited scientific research that supports the notion that mobile phones can disrupt learning processes. The ban is a collaborative effort between the Ministry of Education, schools, and relevant organisations.

    “Even though mobile phones are intertwined with our lives, they do not belong in the classroom,” education minister Robbert Dijkgraaf said.

    While schools will have the freedom to implement their own measures to enforce the ban, Dijkgraaf noted that legal regulations would be introduced if the voluntary approach proves ineffective by the summer of 2024.

    By limiting the presence of smartphones and similar devices in classrooms, the Dutch government aims to protect students from potential distractions and create a learning environment that prioritises concentration and academic achievement.
