The mobile phone at highschools

Nowadays, the majority of the students in highschools have a mobile phone, and normally they take their mobile phone to school. Depending on the things they do during all the lessons, there are people for and against it.

On the one hand, there are some arguments for the issue. Firstly there are students, who take their mobile phone to school, and they only use it in case of emergency, like have some temperature or forget an important work at home, and they use it to call their parents. Another argument is that some students don’t use the mobile phone in class, only at breakfast, or during the period between lessons, and they don’t disturb any teachers, they make a good use of their mobile phone. And if the teachers usually take their mobile phones to school, why can’t students do it.

On the other hand there are some arguments against too. For example, in all schools there is a telephone which the students can use to call home in they have an emergency so they don’t need their mobile phones. Then other people say that nowadays the students normally use it during classes, because they are bored, or somebody has send an sms, which can make the teacher became angry. And the last argument they say is that some students use their mobile phone to copy during their exams, and it shouldn’t happen at highschools.

In my opinion, the students can bring their mobile phones at school, but they should make a good use of it. And they should be penalized if they use it in class, or use it for copying in an exam. But sometimes if you want to call your home, or your parents you can’t use the school telephone, because they only let you telephone someone if you are ill.
