When it comes to a rule that I can’t stand with, it would be no mobile phones during school hours. This rule bams students from using their phone at school even at breaks and free time. The reason why I don’t like this rule is because I need my phone to look for some information, check time and also contact with my parents, which make me feel very inconvenient and unnecessary. Most students in my school feel the same way. They believe that this rule is too strict and outdated. Although some teachers support this rule because they think that it can help students focus on their studying, other teachers think that phones can be helpful for learning because it can help students to answer the questions that they encounter and absorb more knowledge. I have this rule but I still try to respect it because I understand the school’s intention of all ejections but I still want this rule to be more flexible.
