Like flight mode there should be school mode where students can only use a provided wlan that comes with content filters.
Block cellular with thick walls, then only allow them through wifi. Things like youtube can only be acces with a cabled connection. Something like this seems like a good start.
Offline games entered the chat. ProtonVPN entered the chat (specifically Proton with their bypass methods). Tor entered the chat.
They don't even need to know what VPN or Tor is, it's just "Download this app to access internet, bro".
If there was a sort of national system for it, maybe some kinks could be worked out. And if some people still succeed, sure let them have it.
Also, limiting it to offline only already makes a huge difference
100%, if the schools were funded well enough, issuing school phones would be amazing!
School computers work well because they block most of the distractions but ofc students have 1001 distractions in their own!
