Belfast Royal Academy grammar school is enforcing a tough new mobile phone policy to tackle bullying and stop disruption in classes. They have banned the use of mobile phones on school grounds, school trips, and on the school bus.
The school warned that any phone seen or heard by staff will be confiscated.
