I'm not sure how much we can take from one study, but here it is: "our examination of student outcomes and phone bans has revealed an inverse relationship: the more a country bans phones, the lower their PISA score." This is from February. A more recent analysis states that " A meta-analysis of 39 studies exploring the relationship between mobile phone use and educational outcomes for university students (Kates et al., 2018) concluded there appeared to be a consistent, but small, negative effect on educational achievement." An LSE Study found mixed results; "the evidence for banning mobile phones in schools is weak and inconclusive." Fordam, meanwhile, says there is a benefit to cellphone bans, but the studies they cite are from 2016 and 2018.
