More than 90 percent of Canadians support the restriction of cellphone use in the classroom, a recently released survey suggests.

Fifty-five percent of respondents say students shouldn’t be permitted to use cellphones at all, while 36 percent say they shouldn’t be allowed without teacher approval, according to the SecondStreet.org poll conducted by Leger.
