"Vous mettez vos téléphones dans la petite boîte s' ."
"Please put your phones in the little box."
C'est un geste à adopter au quotidien pour tous les élèves, comme ici dans ce collège l'an dernier : déposer son téléphone dans ces casiers.
It's a daily gesture for all students, like here in this school last year: putting your phone in these lockers.
"Alors, ils sont pour la journée jusqu'à 16h30, et on leur rend à 16h30 ou 16h ou 17h quand ils ont terminé leur cours."
"So they're there for the day until 4:30 p.m., and we return them at 4:30 p.m. or 4:00 p.m. or 5:00 p.m. when they've finished their class."
Si la loi interdit déjà l'utilisation du téléphone à l'intérieur de l'établissement, la mise .
While the law already prohibits the use of phones inside the establishment, the implementation of this digital break bans screens hidden in school bags or pencil cases.
Un an après l'expérimentation jugée positive par Elisabeth Borne, tous les collèges, soit 5265, devront s'équiper de ces casiers ou pochettes pour garder les téléphones.

Une mesure appréciée par ces élèves interrogés il y a quelques mois.

"C'est bien parce ' ."
"It's good because you can talk in the yard with your friends."
"Tu peux faire des jeux au ."
"You can play games instead of staying glued to your screen."
"La récré, c'est un moment on partage avec ses amis et c'est pas pour aller sur son téléphone."
"Recess is a time when you share with your friends and not to go on your phone."
Mais la mesure peut-elle tenir ? Le financement d'un tel dispositif pèse sur le budget de certains établissements.
But can the measure be sustained? Funding such a system weighs heavily on the budgets of some institutions.
"C'est la collectivité qui est censée payer ça, et s'il faut des moyens humains, oui, dans ce cas-, c'est l'État. Mais une solution de type pochette coûte à l'installation 10000 euros."
"It's the community that's supposed to pay for this, and if human resources are needed, yes, in that case, it's the State. But a pouch-type solution costs 10,000 euros to install."
Les syndicats souhaitent davantage ' ' .
Unions want to place more emphasis on regulating screen use at home.
