In their recent address, Illa and Ayuso concurred and announced a conflict against the widespread use of mobile devices.

In a joint effort to promote traditional learning methods and protect the well-being of students, both Catalonia and Madrid have announced new policies regarding the use of digital devices in schools.

The Catalan educational system, while not entirely opposed to technology, believes that screens and technologies should be used in spaces other than the classroom for students in Infant and Primary Education. This stance is shared by the Counselor of Education in the community governed by Isabel Díaz Ayuso, who has advocated for similar restrictions in Madrid.

In Catalonia, the school year will commence with 1,604,987 students, 2,247 less than the previous one. This will mark the first year without mobile phones in the compulsory stage. However, for specific needs, such as projects with a digital component, students can use screens.

Teachers in both regions understand the importance of traditional tools like books, paper, and pens for learning. They will not be able to program homework or other academic tasks that require the use of digital devices outside of school hours for students in Infant and Primary Education.

In Madrid, schools and institutes in Secondary Education will delimit the individual or shared use of tablets, computers, and other devices according to the characteristics of the teachings, the age, and level of maturity of their students. Shared use of digital devices between two or more children will be allowed only with a pedagogical purpose, under the supervision of teachers, and with time limitations.

Both Catalonia and Madrid have defended the use of textbooks as the ideal learning method, framing these measures within an integral plan for the protection of childhood and adolescence.

The implementation of these measures has been a long-awaited request from families. Despite the lack of specific information about a Katalonian education policymaker who has publicly opposed the individual use of digital devices during school hours or details about when such measures might be implemented in primary and ESO levels, the general consensus seems to be in favour of these restrictions.

It's important to note that this functionality is only accessible to subscribers, suggesting that more detailed information may be available to those who have subscribed to relevant educational platforms or services.

In conclusion, both Catalonia and Madrid are taking significant steps to promote traditional learning methods and protect the well-being of their students by implementing restrictions on the use of digital devices in schools. These measures are part of a larger plan to ensure the best possible learning environment for students in the compulsory stage.
