19.01.2022 From next year, Victoria will be banning mobile phones to help reduce Cyber Bullying. We think that perhaps schools could focus more on encouraging safe & productive use, rather than banning mobile phones. After all, the present & future IS technology based, whether we like it or not. So should we be making more efforts in school to integrate tech into students work & social lives, and adapt with the times, rather than trying to hold onto what once was, and leaving these pro...blems for students to sort out once they've left school? What do you think?
