With a strong emphasis on academic excellence, cultural diversity, and preparing students to become global citizens, the school consistently ranks among the best in France.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"253\" data-end=\"626\">At \u00c9cole Jeannine Manuel, teachers were noticing how smartphones were increasingly disrupting lessons. Students were tempted to check messages, social media, and games, which broke concentration and made it harder for them to stay engaged in class. Beyond distraction, phones were also limiting face-to-face interaction and reducing the sense of community at break times.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"253\" data-end=\"626\">Research confirms these concerns, with phone usage more than just inconvenient; it can be detrimental. One study found that 73% of school leaders report negative effects on students\u2019 attention spans, 72% note it harms mental health, and 53 % link it to declining academic performance. Other findings show mobile distractions consume result in lower exam scores, and excessive screen time also dampens face-to-face social interaction.<\/p>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n\n            <div class=\"col-md-6 flexible-content__image reveal active lazyload\"\n        style=\"background-image:inherit\" data-aos=\"fade-up\" data-aos-duration=\"1000\" data-bg-image=\"url(&#039;https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WXWorkCapture_17377231608210-1.png&#039;)\">\n      <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section\n  class=\"section section-flexible-content-block flexible-content-block--no-padding\">\n  <div class=\"container-fluid\">\n    <div class=\"row flex-row-reverse\">\n      <div class=\"col-md-6 reveal active\" data-aos=\"fade-up\" data-aos-duration=\"1000\">\n        <div class=\"content\">\n          <div class=\"content__centered\">\n            <h4 data-start=\"253\" data-end=\"626\">Focus and Connection Restored<\/h4>\n<p data-start=\"670\" data-end=\"990\">To address these common issues, the school turned to Phone Locker\u2122 pouches. Each student places their phone into a pouch at the start of the day, locking it until school finishes. The system is simple, secure, and prevents students from accessing their phones during lessons, while still keeping them in possession of their devices.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1040\" data-end=\"1441\">Teachers have reported a calmer, more attentive classroom environment, where students are more present and engaged in their learning. Break times have also transformed \u2014 with students talking, playing, and connecting more with one another instead of retreating into their screens. Phone Locker\u2122 pouches have become a practical tool to support both learning and wellbeing across the school community.<\/p>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n\n            <div class=\"col-md-6 flexible-content__image reveal active lazyload\"\n        style=\"background-image:inherit\" data-aos=\"fade-up\" data-aos-duration=\"1000\" data-bg-image=\"url(&#039;https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/WXWorkCapture_17377232982131.png&#039;)\">\n      <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section\n  class=\"section section-flexible-content-block\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n      <div class=\"col-md-12 reveal active\" data-aos=\"fade-up\" data-aos-duration=\"1000\">\n        <div class=\"content\">\n          <div class=\"content__centered\">\n            <h2 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cThe implementation was straightforward.\u201d<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Roz Unwin &#8211; Co-Ordinator of English<\/p>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n\n          <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section\n  class=\"section section-video-block section--alt-grey\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n      <div class=\"col-md-12\">\n                <div class=\"video-block__content\">\n          <div class=\"content\">\n            <div class=\"content__centered\">\n                            <div class=\"video-block__video_link_container\">\n                <iframe title=\"Phone Locker\u00ae Case Study - Jeannine Manuel School\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Y1vcpsJlbTE?feature=oembed&#038;rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe>              <\/div>\n                          <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<div\n  class=\"section section-contact-us-block section--alt-color\">\n  <div class=\"container reveal active\" data-aos=\"fade-up\" data-aos-duration=\"1000\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n      <div class=\"col-md-12\">\n        <h2 class=\"text--center\">Interested in creating a phone-free school?<\/h2>\n        <p class=\"text--center\">For advice on going phone-free at your school, academy, college or university, we&#8217;re here to help.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"col-md-12 d-flex justify-content-center\">\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/contact-us\/\" class=\"btn btn-primary btn--lg\">\n          CONTATTATECI        <\/a>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":960,"parent":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-case-study-item.php","tags":[],"class_list":["post-554","case_studies","type-case_studies","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"case_study_item_page_service_type":"icon-school"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/case_studies\/554","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/case_studies"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/case_studies"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=554"}],"version-history":[{"count":36,"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/case_studies\/554\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1892,"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/case_studies\/554\/revisions\/1892"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/960"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/phonelocker.marklanham.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
