Students 'will not be very happy' with school cellphone restrictions: Burnaby student leader

That was Burnaby North Secondary student Angela Cheng's feedback on a proposed change to the Burnaby school district's code of conduct that will restrict the use of cellphones and other personal digital devices at local schools.

Proposed additions to the Burnaby school district's code of conduct state "all members of the school community" would be expected to comply with "appropriate use" of cellphones and other personal digital devices. Bombelli said the changes wouldn't be "a large shift" for local schools that already have policies in place for restricting cellphone use.

She said restricting cellphone use was a "really good idea" because she and fellow students are "always checking their phones." Trustee Jen Mezei wanted to know if the restrictions would apply to listening to music on cellphones.
