Yondr Phone-Free Schools

Since 2014, Yondr has been leading the global phone-free schools movement, empowering students to thrive socially, emotionally and academically in their school environment. As UK schools face rising truancy, behaviour challenges, and unprecedented pressure on staff retention, Yondr is the solution of choice across the country. Over 250,000 students in the UK and 2.5 million students in the US use Yondr to experience the wellbeing and academic benefits of phone-free school days. Yondr pairs a magnetically lockable pouch with a hands-on partner programme, including policy review, data tracking, staff and parent support, and a step-by-step roadmap for the early weeks of implementation, to ensure long term positive impacts are embedded from the start. In a recent Yondr survey of 1,200 principals, 72% reported improved behaviour, 84% higher engagement, 68% academic gains, and 86% improved safety and wellbeing in their schools. Yondr goes beyond policy and pouches to deliver a phone-free programme that empowers students and teachers while transforming the culture of the school community for the better.
