Can a teacher confiscate a pupil’s mobile phone that rings in class? According to the lawyer defending the family of a boy to whom it happened, the answer is no: the professor’s behavior would be illegitimate. The incident took place in a school in Vallagarina, in Trentino southerner, during the religion lesson.
The phone The cell phone of the pupil, who is eleven years old, started ringing: the teacher decided to seize it and return it a few days later. A decision that the student’s father did not like, who asked for a meeting with the principal. But, since not even that interview helped to resolve the matter, the man turned to a lawyer, who agreed with him and with which he initiated a lawsuit.
The father he acknowledged that his son was wrongand is convinced that the teacher would have done better to write a disciplinary note (a punishment that he considers “fair”) than to confiscate the mobile phone.
“The guidelines of the ministry and the guarantor of privacy clearly state that the school can prohibit the use of cell phones,” explains the parent to The Adige«but not to exercise coercive powers of search in order to verify compliance with the regulation, as well as the teacher cannot provide for the seizure». The school has not yet released any comments at the moment.
