The Ministry of Education has now said it will issue guidelines in the near future to improve security in all educational institutions, including a ban on the use of smartphones in schools for students under 16 years of age.

 

An initiative to protect minors from cyber threats

In addition, the Ministry of Education (MOE) fully supports the government's intention to set an age limit for the use of social media and enforce that only users aged 16 and above can use social media. This measure is also expected to protect children and adolescents from cyber threats.

Moreover, the Prime Minister expressed his intention to ban the use of smartphones for those under 16 years of age to curb digital addiction, as well as the negative influence of social media and online games. With this development, let's all look forward to the guidelines from the ministry, including the effective date of the guidelines.
