OFFICIALS AT ONE of the schools where a vicious fight among students was recorded and went viral, are uneasy about the Government plan to allow the use of cellphones in schools.

Deputy head of the Christ Church Foundation School, Peter Cox, declared the decision to have the gadgets in schools come September as a conundrum, and is predicting many challenges.

Head of the foreign language department Moira Graham was more blunt, warning: “We would be setting ourselves up.” (WILLCOMM)
