Mobile phones: guidance for Scotland's schools
This guidance was superseded by guidance published in June 2026.
Vision
1. ‘To enable all schools and local authorities to develop an ethos of citizenship that leads to respectful and responsible use of mobile technology. This will encourage schools to positively embrace mobile technology to enhance learning now and, in the future, whilst helping them protect staff, children and young people from the possible disruptive and harmful consequences of misuse.’
