    Interesting. I wonder how this will work out. Having changed my opinion on phone bans in schools I'd really like to see this in action.

    Notre Dame High School in Sheffield, UK, is planning to allow students to bring their phones and other mobile devices into the classroom. I was pleased to see in this article that Mick Brooks, of the NAHT, is taking a non-Luddite stance on this. Unsuprising: he was one of the panel at the recent launch of the Cambridge Review of the Primary Curriculum, which I wrote about recently (http://www.ictineducation.org/home-page/2009/10/22/what-young-people-can-do-and-7-implications-of-that.html).\nPaul Haigh, the Deputy Head mentioned in the article, and I exchanged messages just after the Handheld Learning Conference, and it's good to see his work being picked up by a national newspaper.
