Minister of Education Prien Pleads for Mobile Phone Ban and Language Tests

No mobile phones at primary schools, fewer school drop-outs and mandatory language tests for four-year-olds - this is what Federal Education Minister Prien demands. Her ministry wants to support the responsible countries in the implementation of the goals.

Long screen times have led to psychological problems, says Federal Education Minister Karin Prien. She encourages countries to ban private mobile phone use in schools.

Federal Education Minister Prien has announced that the federal government will support the Länder in deciding on a mobile phone ban at primary schools by providing scientific foundations.

Do mobile phones belong in the classroom? For the new Federal Minister of Education, the matter is clear. However, the former head of the Kiel department knows that dealing with mobile phones in schools is a matter for the state.
