My schools did this back in the mid-2000s and early-2010s. Strict rules on cell phones and electronic devices, weren't even allowed to have them on you, much less use them.

Never worked. Impossible to enforce without having the teachers play prison guard.

There have been plenty of trials, and many schools have done this voluntarily already (If only to figure out how to implement this new law), and from what I hear it's working quite well.
