French high schools rush to enforce Macron's phone ban; unions warn of implementation gaps

French high schools are hurriedly implementing a mobile phone ban signed off by President Macron, who also proposes a social media ban for under-15s as a legacy policy. Education unions caution that enforcement in lycées will be difficult to achieve quickly, highlighting a gap between policy ambition and practical rollout. The move signals Macron's focus on screen-time regulation as a domestic political priority.
