HEALTH FEAR OVER PLANS TO LET PUPILS USE MOBILE PHONES IN LESSONS

CHILDREN are being encouraged to use mobile phones in school despite dire warnings from health chiefs.
Becta, a government advisory group set up to promote technology in schools, has published a study recommending a Âgradual adoption of mobiles until their use is Âas natural as any other technology employed in lessons.
The study flies in the face of Department of Health advice and the GovernmentÂs own expert report on mobile phones produced by Sir William ÂStewart, which concluded that Âthe use of mobile phones by children should be minimised, due to potential health risks.
